Re: Updating svn:ignore lists

[Donald Woods]

If you're a committer on multiple projects, then you need to update your config file or tool (TortoiseSVN in this case) to handle this, instead of expecting everyone to map their svn usage to your tool's behavior or your style....

Any major changes of svn props should be brought up in a discussion thread with [DISCUSS] as the start of the subject for everyone to review and comment upon before applying, since it could impact others expected svn behavior and needs to be documented for future svn additions.

Jason, Donald,

Thanks for your suggestions, I'll surely follow them.

However, I'm not sure that having things like 'target' or 'build' in
the exclude list is a wise practice in long-term.
So, I think having a consistent approach from the project side is also
a good idea.

Thanks!

Here is what I have in my Subversion config file, which I've accumulated
across Windows and Linux -

 global-ignores = .cvsignore ~$* ~*.tmp *.*~ thumbs.db Thumbs.db *.log
.project .classpath .settings target nohup.out build.txt

 Notice the "build.txt", which I have because I like to pipe the build out
to a file so I can go back to look at any failed steps, like -
        mvn install | tee build.txt

 BTW - Please use the other suggested Apache config settings at -

 Note:  You have to add these into TortoiseSVN and the command line svn
config file, if you use both....

Well, I'm using TortoiseSVN and it always considers those files to be
added to the repository when I'm going to create a patch.
This obstructs a create patch/commit dialog with a lot of unneeded
entries, and increases the working copy scan time.

In fact, I wouldn't raise this issue if I don't see that many other
'target' and 'build' directories are put to svn:ignore lists, while
some are not.

Hi Vasily,

What do you mean by getting in the way?  I've never had issues with

this.

What behavior are you seeing?

Probably they need to be added to the corresponding SVN ignore

lists.

I've created a GERONIMO-3957 for that, and provided patches for

trunk,

branches/2.1, branches/2.0 and tags/2.1.0.

I hope it would be useful.
