I am using Windows XP and an having a difficult time finding this file.

First link from Google (search was "windows xp subversion configuration
file location",
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6310539/where-is-the-subversion-global-config-file-for-the-slik-svn-client-for-windows)
sez:

C:\Documents and Settings\%USERNAME%\Application Data\Subversion\config

I no longer run on Windows XP, so I don't remember if this is the proper
place for the file, but I have no reason to doubt it.

For Windows 7 it's in:

C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\Subversion\config

Which I can confirm.

In the "config" file, I have my global-ignores for Windows set to:

global-ignores = *.obj *.lib *.map *.exe *.bak *.pdb *.ilk *.idb

There might need to be a few more; it's been several years since I have
imported existing code into my Subversion repositories. But you get the
idea.
