Symbolic links

[Jedi/Sector One <su...@pureftpd.org>]

  Hello.
  
  Sorry if this question is silly, but I'm very new to Subversion.
  
  I have a project that contains internal relative symbolic links between
directories.

  Subversion refuses to add these links to the repository :
  
svn: Trying to use an unsupported feature
svn: Unsupported node kind for path 'css'.

  Ok, this is unsupported yet.

  But is there a way to tell subversion to actually ignore these links, just
to not pollute the "svn status" output?

  I tried to set up an "ignore" property on these links but it didn't work :
  
$ svn propset svn:ignore set css
svn: Can't find an entry
svn: 'css' -- not a versioned resource

  What is the right way to ignore these links?
  
  Best regards,

Set an svn:ignore property on the directory containing the link, not on
the link itself.
