svn propset --append
hi,
as the subject already said it would be cool if you could append some
values to an already existing property. like adding recursively adding
some name to the ignore list.

Except that isn't recursive:-)

Or even easier, with 'svn propedit'.

Certainly not for all properties.

Personally, I think this wole idea is crazy. If we start implementing
things like this, we might as well pack a default editor for propedit, too.
If someone wants to put a propappend.py script into contrib, that's
fine. But this sort of thing doesn't belong in the code.

I'm inclined to agree, but I'm worried about the case when the existing
property isn't terminated by a newline.
Do we define special semantics for svn:* properties (add a seperating
newline between the existing nd appended values if one not already present)?
Or do we define this for all properties?
Are there any instances when this would be undesired?

ben... on irc you even agreed to this addition. i just forgot to mail at
that time.
and i can just agree to peter. propedit is non recursive and a bit
cumbersome for many targets

This would really be overdoing it. You can do this with a one-line script.
