Way to not commit changes to a file?
I want to make local changes to a file, and have them not sent to
the respository when I do a commit. But I want that file to update
when I do an update. Is there an easier way to do this than commiting
everything file by file except for the one I don't want to commit?
Thanks,
Adam

Use a symlink to a file in a different project or different relative
location. That lets you segregate the changes of one directory from another.

You can use wildcards on the command line to choose what to commit.
It's file-by-file, but not a lot of work for you.
If you're using TortoiseSVN, you can uncheck one file in the list it
presents to you before committing.
As far as I know there's no way to mark a file to say "don't commit
this, even if I ask you to".
