Adding thumbs.db to svn:ignore?

I intend to add

thumbs.db
Thumbs.db

to svn:ignore in any images folder we have in the webapps to prevent
having it appearing again unintentionally.

I would set the property for trunk and all release branches we maintain.

Any objections?

Regards,

Rainer

+1 for build/resources and other folders if those contain images as well

I think that those are to be added to the global-ignores setting in the
Subversion configuration of those running it on Windows.

You can do it e.g. from the configuration dialog of TortoiseSVN
(the "General" page of it).

Though I am as well OK with adding them to svn:ignore. That won't
hurt. That is my +1.

According to
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.5/svn.advanced.props.special.ignore.html
you can write that as
 [Tt]humbs.db

or, generalizing it,
 [Tt][Hh][Uu][Mm][Bb][Ss].[Dd][Bb]
