MacOSX: svn:ignore - unable to add Icon0x0d

Hi svn fellows!

I'm a long time cvs-user who is finally successfully converted into  
an svn-user (in other words: I was made compatible or shall I say  
Universal Binary :-)

I observed that if you change an icon of a directory (e.g. copy one  
over the old one in GetInfo window) on MacOSX it creates a file which  
is displayed as "Icon?" but containes hex 0x0d which in turn lets my  
svn scream out loud. I searched on the tigris database but didn't  
find any results.

So, is this already known? Or shall I report this issue?

Cheers,
the_Alien@aliensoundware.com

PS:
If you ask yourself "Why the hell you come along and tweak and fiddle  
around on unproductive things and waste everyone's time?" I can reply  
in my defense "Hey, I'm on Mac now: Everything shines, bells and  
whistles. I wanna have that too!" :-)

Thanks for the info. I'm no more doing that on version controlled trees.

I think this has come up before and there isn't a fix, other than to not
do that... depending on what the icon is being displayed on, there may be
alternative ways of getting the icon displayed (e.g. adding it to a
bundle, Finder .DS_Store file, etc).

It was a bad idea when Apple implemented that back in the OS 8/9 days. It
was doubly bad when Apple brought that forward to OS X. It breaks all
sorts of command line stuff.

You can add it to the "global-ignores" item in your "~/.subversion/
config" file. I have not found a way to specify the 0x0d character, but
this expression should work:

global-ignores = *.o (...) Icon[^!-~]

It will ignore any "Icon" file with a trailing character that is not in
the range 0x21-0x7e. If you want to avoid ignoring "Icon " with a
trailing space, you can use an hex editor to replace the "!" by
character 0x1f in the config file. Only files named "Icon" with a
trailing character that is not printable ascii, will be ignored.
