Hi,
I need to exclude files with the following pattern:
ProjectFoo.Data[0-9]{14}.lgp
How can I use RegEx for (Visual)SVN ignore list?

A:
As the file looks like an LLBLGen Pro project backup file, you can force llblgen pro to store backup files into a separate folder (See preferences: default backup folder), e.g. .\Backup. This way you can exclude that folder in svn and you're done :)

Frans,I am just astound by finding you answering this question... How do you find the time to develop LLBLGen, monitor the LLBLGen forum AND scan stackoverflow.com for little thingies!I wish one day I had that time... Or found the same loophole for time travelling.. Thanks!

Heh :) Well, I registered to stackoverflow 1 day ago, and was just browsing some questions, trying out the tag filtering stuff, and my eye caught the .lgp suffix. Immediately I recognized the problem, and knew the answer :D. So call it 'just luck' ;) (oh and fast typing helps ;))

A:
The subversion ignore list don't support regular expressions. They are implemented as glob/file patterns.
These patterns don't support the {14} repeat construct.
The pattern
ProjectFoo.Data[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9].lgp
should do what you ask, but I would recommend using something like ProjectFoo.Data[0-9]*.lgp as that would be 'good enough'.
