I'm running....

TortoiseSVN 1.6.11, Build 20210 - 64 Bit Windows 7 64 Bit Visual Studio 2008

I've created a repository, done an SVN Checkout, and created a new VS solution with a new project.

Next I tried to commit my changes and noticed that contents of the "bin" and "obj" directories are included in the list of items to check in.

So, I thought I would add the following expression....

*.suo *.user bin obj *.pdb *.cache *_svn *.svn *.suo *.user *.build-res TestResults _ReSharper*

.....as suggested in this previous question, but no joy.

What am I doing wrong????

Just to clarify, I have been right clicking the root folder of my working directory then > TortoiseSVN > Settings and adding the expression above to the "SubVersion Global Ignore Pattern"

Any help appreciated.

Many thanks,

ETFairfax

More Info: It's just folder references that are not working. If I put in *.dll all dlls are omitted from the list, but I'd like to be able to put in a reference to all "bin" directories if possible.

  • @Dog Ears: My global ignore settings are the same as yours now, and I've typed them in to ensure spaces. Still not working!! It's just folder references that are the problem. "*.dll" works, but "*/bin" doesn't. – ETFairfax Dec 07 '10 at 12:49
  • Noticed in the docs that it's changed (i don't know how recently) so you can simple drop the * and slashes for folders..so this should work.. see updated answer – Dog Ears Dec 07 '10 at 13:20
  • .. also it's casesensitive.. even on windows! – Dog Ears Dec 07 '10 at 13:21
  • if you've 'added' these folders that are *IGNORED*, they'll still show up if you're 'commiting'! The **IGNORE**, stops them appearing in the list of files to *ADD* not *COMMIT* – Dog Ears Dec 07 '10 at 13:29
  • @DogEars: As it was a new almost empty project I ditched the lot and started again. It's all working now. I'm assuming is was user error along the way at some point. Thank you for your help! – ETFairfax Dec 08 '10 at 09:25

Try putting each entry on a separate line. Here is an example of what I use:

bin  
obj  
*.suo  
*.user  
*.bak

Patterns aside - make sure you restart SmartSVN application. Otherwise you won't see any effect - even though your patterns may be correct.

Bumping an old question, as the current answer has some issues.

*\bin *\bin* *\obj *\obj* *.suo *.user .bak .ReSharper *_ReSharper.** StyleCop.Cache
