Log message for revision 88608: get rid of another collective'ism :) many people don't seem to know this, but you can do
svn propedit svn:ignore
There's no need to keep a separate file around for the ignores.
I think originally folks started doing this because the properties (svn:ignore, svn:externals) can't be viewed from the web interface. I'm not arguing for the practice, and in fact would prefer that we update the webapp to something which *can* expose the properties.

I think we should also update the webapp to something that handles directories and files consistently. To view a directory, you click on its name, but to view a file, you have to click on the revision number; and after browsing through a dozen directories, it is really hard for me always to remember to select a file by clicking on something different. -- Brandon Craig Rhodes brandon@rhodesmill.org http://rhodesmill.org/brandon

Trac's repository browser is much nicer than ViewVC. Example: http://source.schooltool.org/trac/browser/trunk/schooltool Trac comes with a lot of baggage (wiki, issue tracker), but those can be disabled.

If you're using an older distribution, older than 4 to 6 months (and anything with "Enterprise" in the name is by definition old), please consider going to a newer distribution. -- http://www.linuxpowertop.org/known.php

Also, svn itself won't diff svn properties.

I really really really want to see Trac being installed for this. It's svn browsing is superior by far. Just disable the wiki, roadmap and ticket modules. -- Martijn Pieters
