svn:global-ignores Not working? Tortoise SVN 1.9.7 / Subversion 1.9.7


I have the following file _svnignore.txt which contains:

bin
packages
debug
release
.vs

I have run the following command on reporoot:

svn propset svn:global-ignores -F _svnignore.txt .

I have the following folder structure structure:

reporoot/MySolutionFolder
reporoot/packages
reporoot/lib

When I do a commit through Tortoise SVN I am still seeing files in the path reporoot/MySolutionFolder/bin to be committed when I do not want them to be


Solution

  • This was resolved - the solution was to Commit just the MySolutionFolder folder to source control first and then apply the propset to the route.
