ignore property in new property window is not working

GoogleCodeExporter opened this issue · comments

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. select a folder in tree view 
2. in the property editor add svn:ignore property
3. enter folder names to ignore (e.g. scaffold -- these folders have not been 
added to versioning)
4. refresh to see if the ignore property hides the ignored folders
5. switch to a different folder and back to the folder with the added ignore 
property
6. ignore property is no longer there (it even removed existing ignore 
properties)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Folders added to the ignore list should no longer appear in the browser

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1.2b1, Mac OS X 10.6.3

Please provide any additional information below.

It works for me.  I just tried it (with Subversion 1.6.6).

Note: In Tree View you can only add/edit/delete properties for items within the 
selected/current folder.
I.e. items selected on the right-hand list view.  You can't see or edit 
properties of the current folder.
[You have to select the parent of the current folder on the left & then select 
the original folder on the right.
 This may change in a future release.]

You may have added the property to a different item than you think.
Select all the items in your original folder & check if you can see the 
svn:ignore property.

Was that it?
Which version of Subversion are you using?

I ignore library folders by setting svn:ignore on the root.  I would like to 
edit the properties of the root folder, and this appears to be impossible from 
the reduced list view within svnX.  (In the expanded list view or tree view 
it's quite possible, so this is not a big deal.)
Here's one suggestion: if nothing is selected on the right, have Properties 
edit the current folder.

In the case of ignore in particular,  I would not object to a control-click -> 
Ignore option.  But, I am not intimate with svn, and I don't understand the 
details of all the different ways to ignore something.  For example, I've heard 
something about a global configuration file, and I don't know if it's feasible 
to magically change the right setting.

Vanceza,

As to your first suggestion - I think that that was already implied by the 
preceding comment.
[I think that this would only be appropriate in tree-view mode,
 as then there's some indication of the properties' owner.]
Your second suggestion was already added by the OP as Issue 92.

Regarding global ignores:
    search for “global-ignores” in “~/.subversion/config”
    or Google “global-ignores site:http://svnbook.red-bean.com/”.

Thanks for the link.  I didn't notice 92.
