Some files won't be imported to my repository!

Hi folks

I created a repository and imported one entire directory.

But some files in that directory were not added to my repository.

I logged the import process and confirmed this.

But why? I need these files in order to auto-build by Hudson server.

these files are 17mb - 44mb big, named for example, "libxerces-c-3.0.so",
"libxerces-c.a"

Thanks in advance.

You probably have an svn:ignore set on *.so *.a?

Cheers / Erik

The default behaviour of subversion (and many version control systems) is to 
ignore temporary and generated files such as libraries and intermediate 
objects (like .o files). Usually the intended behaviour is to version the 
source not the results of compiling or editing the source.

In subversion this is controlled by the general settings, if you search the 
subversion config file for global-ignores (it is probably a comment by 
default) you'll see a list of files including .so and .a, change the list to 
suit your needs or you can try explicitly adding them on the command line. 
The config file on unix is in ~/.subversion/config. On windows I'm not so 
sure, but here is the reference in the redbook. Just search down a little for  
the words global-ignores for more info.

By default, Subversion ignores .so and .a files, and some others. If you don't want that, set global-ignores to something else in your ~/.subversion/config (or equivalent if not on a Unix-based operating system).
