svn:ignore bug on Vista
Hi,
I noticed a pretty serious issue with SVN client. I'm 100% sure that the
behaviour I am experiencing on Vista is not normal. I'm using 1.4.5 and
didn't have the same problems on XP or Ubuntu.
D:\project>svn ps svn:ignore "*" log
property 'svn:ignore' set on 'app'
property 'svn:ignore' set on 'components'
property 'svn:ignore' set on 'config'
property 'svn:ignore' set on 'db'
property 'svn:ignore' set on 'doc'
property 'svn:ignore' set on 'lib'
property 'svn:ignore' set on 'log'
property 'svn:ignore' set on 'public'
svn: Cannot set 'svn:ignore' on a file ('Rakefile')
Svn is setting ignore on all(?) folders.. and it really is (I checked
dir-props-base for listed folders).
If I try to do that:
D:\project>cd log
D:\project\log>svn ps svn:ignore "*" .
property 'svn:ignore' set on '.'
log\.svn\dir-prop-base looks like this:
K 10
svn:ignore
V 5
.svn
END
So even this doesn't work... I was expecting a "*" instead of ".svn". As
a matter of fact in first attemp when it was setting svn:ignore all over
the place, in every dir-prop-base I noticed ".svn" as well...
It seems there are two problems at once.
I hope someone can confirm this. Thank you very much!
David

No, you don't. Use the propedit command.
bye,
Erik.

Aha! These are bytes.. Well.. Vista is expanding a STAR so I cannot
sneak it in without editing the file manually.. <br>
<br>
so issuing this:<br>
svn ps <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="svn:ignore">svn:ignore</a> "*" tmp/<br>
<br>
sets <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="svn:ignore">svn:ignore</a> on all the dirs because the star is replaced by dir
names by vista!<br>
<br>
hmm wait.. I forgot about propedit. OK then this is a solution for
now.. any maybe forever, because Vista will continue expanding that
star no matter what. It's interesting that XP also expands it when
written like this:<br>
svn ps <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="svn:ignore">svn:ignore</a> * tmp/<br>
<br>
but not when the star is enclosed by quotation marks.<br>
<br>
Thank you all, I learned everything I wanted to know.. I appreciate
your time and hopefully I can start being helpful around svn
development as well.. I have a big interest in that and was already
exploring the developers section.. It's a little bit hard to get
orientated though. Maybe because I'm beginner in open-source
development. We'll see..<br>
<br>
Thank you again!<br>

They are (K)ey (V)alue pairs. The numbers indicate how many bytes
each key and value is.
That said, you should NEVER edit ANYTHING inside .svn/. You will
corrupt your working copy, guaranteed. Just use svn propset/propedit
to change property values. What possible reason could you have for
going behind svn's back?

My guess (and I have basically no windows experience): your shell is
expanding "*" and turning that into the command
$ svn ps <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="svn:ignore">svn:ignore</a> .svn app components config db doc lib log public
Rakefile (...) log
