Subversion Ignore Pattern not working too well

Question

I've got the following pattern for my global ignore pattern:

*.pdb *.suo *.user *.cache */_ReSharper */bin */obj *.o *.lo *.la *.al .libs *.so .so.[0-9] *.a *.pyc *.pyo *.rej ~ ## .#* .*.swp .DS_Store

resharper folders for example (_ReSharper.SubtextSolution) are still being committed as well as some other folders such as bin for some reason.

I'd also be interested to see what others have as their global ignore pattern. Not that everyone's will apply specifically to my environment but would still be helpful to see a few regardless....specifically related to .NET environments that is.

Answer 1

Try using *ReSharper* in your ignore settings for ignoring all ReSharper files. Also, for ignoring the bin and obj folders, I always use [Bb]in and [Oo]bj.

Answer 2

Here is my personal experience :

• previously commited files will keep being committed if you added the ignore pattern later (you'll have to svn-delete them explicitly)
• in tortoise svn, you should put 1 ignore pattern per line

Answer 3

I posted this as a response to a similar question, by in addition to the default TortoiseSVN global ignores I add the following:

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

You don't need the / values in there. Especially since the _Resharper folders tend to get added at the root (at least for me).

Answer 4

Heres my 2 cents...

*.o .lo .la ## ..rej .rej .~ ~ .# .DS_Store thumbs.db Thumbs.db *.bak *.class *.exe *.dll *.mine *.obj *.ncb *.lib *.log *.idb *.pdb *.ilk .msi .res *.pch *.suo *.exp .~ .~ ~. cvs CVS .CVS .cvs .datasource release Release debug Debug ignore Ignore bin Bin obj Obj [Bb]in [Oo]bj *.csproj.user *.user ReSharper. *.resharper.user *.g.vb *.g.cs *.baml *.GenerateResource.Cache *.cache *.xap

This covers WPF/Silverlight, WCF and Resharper along with all the usual gubbins.
