Hi folks,
I'm trying to set the svn:ignore properties for a working directory, in
particular I want to ignore robots.txt. I'm following along with the
example in the book, chapter 7, but I must be doing something wrong.
Please bear with me, I've been in love with svn since February but this
is my first time trying to set svn:ignore.
In the following dialogue, .svnignore is a brand new file (not under
version control), and robots.txt is under version control but has been
modified and I want to ignore it.
[user@host htdocs]$ svn propget svn:ignore
[user@host htdocs]$ cat .svnignore
.svnignore
robots.txt
[user@host htdocs]$ svn propset svn:ignore -F .svnignore .
property 'svn:ignore' set on '.'
[user@host htdocs]$ svn propget svn:ignore .
.svnignore
robots.txt
[user@host htdocs]$ svn status
M .
M robots.txt
[user@host htdocs]$ svn revert robots.txt
Reverted 'robots.txt'
[user@host htdocs]$ svn status
M .
[user@host htdocs]$ svn ci -m "Updating ignore props"
Sending .
Committed revision 303.
[user@host htdocs]$ echo "foo" >>robots.txt
[user@host htdocs]$ echo "arf" >>.svnignore
[user@host htdocs]$ svn status
M robots.txt
[user@host htdocs]$ svn diff
Index: robots.txt
===================================================================
--- robots.txt (revision 303)
+++ robots.txt (working copy)
@@ -1,2 +1,3 @@
User-agent: *
Disallow: /
+foo
[user@host htdocs]$
The changes to the .svnignore file are being ignored, as directed; but
if I change robots.txt, it flags as modified.
What am I missing? Is it not possible to ignore changes to files that
are already under version control?
Thanks!
Shaun

My thanks to Ryan Schmidt and Bob Proulx. Indeed, it seems that files
which are already versioned cannot be ignored. svn rm'ing and
maintaining multiple copies wasn't what I'd hoped to have to do, but
it'll work!
Thanks,
And happy Thanksgiving to those who observe it, I for one am thankful
for svn on this holiday,
Shaun

Idea: You should be able to remove it from version control and then it
would be ignored.

I think that's correct.
