strange svn propset:ignore behaviour ...

[Roland Bramm <ro...@butlers-djihad.de>]

Hi,

i have a directory my project, the dict generator generates during 
the build process this files :
EventDict.cxx
EventDict.h

i put this names in a .svnignore file and executed

[rbamm:] svn propset svn:ignore -F .svnignore
property `svn:ignore' set on ''

an produces:
[rbamm:] svn stat
  M     .
?      .svnignore

which is ok.
(after svn add .svnignore  and svn ci -m "updated ignore list")

i wanted then to checkin all my changes i did on the .C files with

svn ci -m "minor typo changes"

but then i get an:
Sending        trunk
svn: Transaction is out of date
svn: Commit failed (details follow):
svn: out of date: `/OM/trunk' in txn `1p'
(a svn cleanup does not help)

cant i checkin the "ignores" set on . ? or am i doing somthing wrong ...

Thanks
Roland

'/OM/trunk' is out of date.

/OM/trunk probably corresponds to '.' I would guess.  You need to
update directories to HEAD before you can commit property changes on
them.

Why are you adding the .svnignore to version control?  You can always
'svn propedit' the svn:ignore property on the directory.

As the error says, it's an "out of date" problem when committing.
Philip already explained that propchanges can only be committed to
directories that are fully up-to-date.  So always 'svn up' before
committing a dir propchange.

There's an explanation of this in the book, at the end of chapter 2.
