svn import bug or feature ?

[Diego Torres Milano <di...@in3.com.ar>]

I've tried to import this:

[diego@zebra temp]$ tree
.
|-- branches
|-- tags
`-- trunk
    |-- hello.c
    `-- hello.o
 
3 directories, 2 files

[diego@zebra temp]$ svn import . file:///tmp/svntest -m "Initial import"
Adding         trunk
Adding         trunk/hello.c
Adding         branches
Adding         tags
 
Committed revision 1.

And hello.o is _silently_ ignored and I couldn't find an import option
to do this.
The only solution is to 'svn add' after import.
Obviously this is not the real case but a oversimplification.

It ('*.o') is one of the default global-ignores. See Chapter 7, section
"Runtime Configuration Area" in the SVN book.

As a side note, why on earth would you want generated object files in
your repository? Doing so will only cause you pain, trust me.
