In my coding environment I've got a dev, test and production machine. Sometimes I have to add files to svn:ignore for all machines. But if I want to update these properties, I have to make an update on a whole folder instead of only some stable files.

Is there any chance to get only the update of the folder properties (like svn:ignore) but without updating all the new and maybe instable files?

A: 

That sounds like you would like to update the properties of a folder but not the file in that folder. I think that is not possible.

That is exactly what I was asking for.

A: 

svn update --non-recursive <foldername>

And that will not update the files in the specific folder, but only the properties? I would expect that this command will update all files in the folder and it's properties but not the subfolders.

svn update --depth empty <path> will do that.

The deprecated svn update --non-recursive <path> suggested in a different answer also updates the directory-contents too; just like you suspected.

Thanks a lot. That really seems to work perfectly!
