svn status "I"?

I think "svn status" can display a status character that's not 
documented anywhere, "I".  At least, I done seen it do that, and I 
shore can't find it documented nowhere.  From context, I think it 
means "Ignored" (as in, in the svn:ignore property).

Sound about right?

I'm looking at revision 6204:6215 (in PDF).  I searched it for 
"status", found several points that referred me to "the svn status 
section."

Eventually, I found a section called "svn status."  It's inside a 
section called "Examine your changes."  This seems to be in the 
"Guided Tour" section.  This lists AMD?!~C, but no I.  (In the HTML 
full-page version of the book, the "see the svn status section" 
references hyperlink to this spot as well.)

Is there a compelling reason these hyperlinks lead into the tutorial, 
rather than the complete reference?

Since the "complete reference" really ought to have all (and does, so 
far as I know), it's kind of a maintenance issue to have the all 
listed in the tutorial, too.  Perhaps the tutorial section should say 
something like "here are a few of the codes" or "some of the most 
common codes."  And have a reference/link down into the 
complete-reference section.

wait a minute, it *is* in the reference!

right between 'C' and '?' on this page:

  http://svnbook.red-bean.com/html-chunk/re25.html


where in the book were you looking and not finding it?

FWIW, the section on svn:ignore mentions it:

  http://svnbook.red-bean.com/html-chunk/ch06s02.html#svn-ch-6-sect-2.3

Of course, it ought to be in the reference too...

It's in the reference chapter (chapter 8), and in the section 
(in chapter 6) where svn:ignore is discussed.

I didn't put it in chapter 3 because I didn't think it would be 
meaningful to talk about it before svn:ignore had been discussed.

I can see an argument for putting it there anyway; I'll leave that
to the book authors to decide.

It *is* in the Book, at least in chapter 8, the reference chapter.
(It ought to be in the chapter 3 tutorial as well.)  You must be
looking at an old book.

It is maintained sporadically.  I'm not sure how out-of-date it is,
actually.  We shouldn't kill it unless we know it's quite outdated.

The 'status' documentation there is very brief and doesn't document
any of the other letter codes either, so it's not a crisis that it
doesn't document 'I'.

*grunt*  Is someone maintaining the man page?  If not, let's kill it.

The poor book authors have been preoccupied improving the software,
not the book...

Why you're right, there it is.  I guess I just got lost in the 
unpaged 3.5 pages of spew!

But not in "man svn".

And not in The Book.

Seems to be documented in 'svn help status' on my version of svn ;-)

$ svn help status

[ ... stuff ... ]

The first five columns in the output are each one character wide:
     First column: Says if item was added, deleted, or otherwise changed
       ' ' no modifications
       'A' Added
       'D' Deleted
       'M' Modified
       'C' Conflicted
       'I' Ignored  <--- right there
       '?' item is not under revision control
       '!' item is missing (removed by non-svn command) or incomplete
       '~' versioned item obstructed by some item of a different kind
