I am being forced to work with Subversion on a current project.
Someone has unkindly added the bin and obj folders to the repository.
Other than removing them, and committing the removal, is there an equivalent of .gitignore file I can add to the repository to make the guilty party in the development team never add them again?
I know I can alter my own global ignore pattern, but ideally I'd like the whole development team to be able to share this on a project level.

Use the following command to create a list not under version control files. Then edit the file to leave just the files you want actually to ignore. Then use this one to ignore the files listed in the file: svn propset svn:ignore -F ignoring.
The . gitignore file's purpose is to prevent everyone who collaborates on a project from accidentally commiting some common files in a project, such as generated cache files. Therefore you should not ignore .
A . gitignore file is a plain text file where each line contains a pattern for files/directories to ignore. Generally, this is placed in the root folder of the repository, and that's what I recommend. However, you can put it in any folder in the repository and you can also have multiple .
This is done by a svn:ignore property in SVN. This property can be added to a folder. Let us imagine the following:
+-- root +-- bin +-- ... to ignore the bin folder you have to set the svn:ignore property onto the root folder. First change into the root folder and do the following on command line:
svn propset svn:ignore "bin" . Or you can do this via TortoiseSVN on Windows (file->properties->Subversion Tab).. Further reading in the Subversion book.

I have just started with Android Studio and I ended up editing the svn:ignore property in the GUI. I used the Edit Properties in the Subversion menu and added a whole bunch of ignores which were mentioned in other posts.
Below is what I ignored and Android Studio marked these visually with different colour after I edited the property.
