What is the equivalent of the CVS .cvsignore file?
I have a lot of files that I don't want to get into the repository because they are only temporary files created by the compiler every time I do almost anything in the IDE. These are ignored when we use CVS by the use of a global cvsignore setting plus .cvsignore files in projects that need some more files ignored.
My main cvsignore file has something like 40-50 entries..
I tried to study the svnbook on this matter but the closest I get is to use:
svn propedit svn:ignore
But this seems to be an exercise to be done on directory levels and my IDE creates a lot of directories that are not versioned to begin with...
Is there no way to make a global setting on the client side such that the known files types will be ignored from svn?
If it matters I use the SmartSvn program as a user interface on my development PC. It was recommended for users wanting a GUI interface like we had for CVS.
