titleAdvanced Command

This command should usually be done by the repository administrator.  To have Subversion ignore files in your local copy, see the section above entitle "Global config for ignoring files".

 

Files can have properties on them.  This can be used to alter the behavior of Subversion.

For instance, this command will cause all files with the .log extension to be ignored in the current directory.

 

svn propset svn:ignore "*.log" .

Tips and Warnings

Do not EVER checkout an SVN project into another Subversion structure node.  This has the potential to create some serious issues when executing Subversion commands, and it will also confuse you.
