Is it possible for somebody to add an svn:ignore for dirs like Bin, Stage, Dist, etc on the Boost trunk? Not a big deal, but I pull down Boost using svn:externals for one of my projects, then build it as part of my build script, and it's a little annoying having all the built files pop up in the commit list with no way to set them to ignore without having to do it manually on every checkout. Unless someone knows an SVN trick I can use in my project to work around this? (Though I can't see a reason using svn:ignore in Boost would be a problem...)

I set SVN to ignore unversioned files. Olaf

There's an svn:ignore property on trunk, but not release, I think it should be safe to copy that over to the release branch. I'll try to do that this weekend.

Oh right, I misread my subversion output. The unversioned files that are popping up are because of the bootstrap script. The svn:ignore property is missing for the 'tools/build/v2/engine/bin.ntx86' and 'tools/build/v2/engine/bootstrap' dirs (and probably a couple others in the same engine dir depending on your platform). Also, project-config.jam and bootstrap.log in /trunk. Again, generated by the bootstrap script. On Fri, Jun 24, 2011 at 6:05 PM, Olaf van der Spek <ml@vdspek.org> wrote:

I like unversioned files being displayed, because on my project there should not be any, so if I notice one it means I either need to commit or ignore it. Maybe it's just me being overly OCD, but it helps me avoid accidentally failing to commit new files etc.
