Eclipse Subversive new files automatically added to version control

I use Eclipse Helios and Subversive:

Subversive SVN Connectors 2.2.2.I20110124-1700
org.polarion.eclipse.team.svn.connector.feature.group

Subversive SVN Team Provider (Incubation) 0.7.9.I20110207-1700
org.eclipse.team.svn.feature.group

Eclipse and Subversive automatically add new files to version control.

But it seems that this automatic behavior is parametrized: *.log files are not added to version control.

Where is the configuration for this automatic behavior?

Team>SVN>Properties Configuration>Automatic properties ? But the panel is empty, the rule for the *.log files is not listed.

Solution

  • Eclipse

    It is under Team-->Ignored Resources.

    enter image description here

    svn:ignore property

    You can set the svn:ignore property to exclude certain files/file patterns from subversion:

    subversion global settings

    Subversion has globally defined excludes: global-ignores

    When running the svn status command, Subversion lists unversioned files and directories along with the versioned ones, annotating them with a ? character (see the section called “svn status”). Sometimes, it can be annoying to see uninteresting, unversioned items—for example, object files that result from a program's compilation—in this display. The global-ignores option is a list of whitespace-delimited globs which describe the names of files and directories that Subversion should not display unless they are versioned. The default value is *.o *.lo *.la #*# .*.rej *.rej .*~ *~ .#* .DS_Store.

    As well as svn status, the svn add and svn import commands also ignore files that match the list. You can override this option for a single instance of any of these commands by using the --no-ignore command-line flag. For information on more fine-grained control of ignored items, see the section called “svn:ignore”.
