In Windows a tool like TortoiseSVN has ignore file/folder
feature in its right-click menu. On Linux Ubuntu I have installed a tool called RabbitVCS, which is supposed to be the best alternative of TortoiseSVN on Linux.
However, I am unable to find ignore
feature in its right-click menu.
Can anyone advise me on how to ignore files or folders from SVN commits using RabbitSVN tool?
If you want to ignore all CVS folders, just add CVS to the ignore list. There is no need to specify CVS */CVS as you did in earlier versions. If you want to ignore all tmp folders when they exist within a prog folder but not within a doc folder you should use the svn:ignore property instead.
To ignore files in subversion you want to set the svn:ignore property. You can see more here http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.8/svn.advanced.props.special.ignore.html about half way down. svn propset svn:ignore target . svn propedit svn:ignore .
The Ignore File
menu option will existing only if you haven't committed the file before.
If you have committed it before, then you have to remove it from the repository first and then ignore it.
