Ignore directory in SVN without affecting svn:igno

问题:

I know about the svn:ignore property, but that doesn't solve my problem.

I have a source directory. I want to create a directory inside it, called "build" that I will build inside. I don't want to put "build" in svn:ignore because other people using the same repository don't need it ignored, and I may want to have different names for this.

The general problem is this:

Given a working copy of a subversion directory, I want to make a subdirectory that will be ignored by svn without modifying anything on the server. If I could make a directory and stick an empty ".svn_ignore_this_directory" file inside it or something, that would be awesome. I think in git it would be something like making a .gitignore file with just "." in it, but maybe that's not right. Can svn do this?

回答1:

You have a .subversion file that defines the configuration of your local machine (the location of this file will depend on your OS). Inside that file, use the global-ignores option to configure files or folders that you want your local Subversion to ignore. Changes made to this file will only affect your machine.

I'm not sure if I've understood what you want to achieve, but:

• If you want svn to ignore that folder simply don't version it. Depending on the client you're using you can hide unversioned files/folders from the commit list.
• If other people don't need it ignored, they need it versioned? if that is true, then it has no sense for you to have it ignored.

Sorry if I misunderstood you.
