I am using Subversive and I have the same question as Subclipse svn:ignore, but the solution did not work for me. Anyone knows how to add to svn:ignore files already added to a project with Sobversive?
If I delete it and create it again, there is a red exaclamation ('!') icon and I am not able to add it to svn:ignore
You must delete the file and commit the deletion. Then you can re-add the file, and put it under svn:ignore.

Is there any way to have Subversion (in Eclipse) ignore a specific file. I've tried going to Team --> Synchronize with Repository, and the Mark as Merged option isn't available. I don't think it's possible, but does anyone have any ideas?
Not sure about eclipse and what ignoring file has to do with marking as merged, but what I'd do is svn pe svn:ignore <path> and add the file there.
After having refreshed your project with the repo, you just have to right click your file and "add to svn ignore" in the Team menu.
The option is available only if your file is not already in the repo.
If your file already exists in the repo, you will have to delete it first and recreate it as if it is a new one.
You can ignore only a single file or setup a mask.
It sounds to me as if the file is already added, which is a state it can't be ignored from. You need to remove it first, and you need to synchronise it fully first such that the server and client views of the file are equal.
You can do this by reverting the file, but keep a local copy so you can fix the file after it has been deleted from both sides (you'll delete the client copy, and will have to put it back again). After that, delete the file from the client side, commit, synchronise, put the file back, and then mark it as ignored from the SVN team menu (do not 'add' the file).
I want to add the SVN ignore property to my project to ignore target folder and .classpath.
So I went through team → set property, but I didn't know how the configuration for the name and values would be. How can I do it?
You can set svn:ignore using Team → Add to svn:ignore on the right click of file. However, if the file is already committed to SVN this option will not be enabled.
You would need to remove it from SVN, clean up the local repository and then add svn:ignore.
I have problem with svn. a have copied a xib file and i have an ? point int my file ( the xib) and i can not commit this file.
thanks for your answer.
First add those files with ? mark by selecting and clicking add button
You have to add the file to svn first and then you can commit it.
? indicates that the file is not added to the svn folder and is missing. So add it to the svn first using
svn add
and then commit
Try to update it at first and when commit it !!!
First delete that file from svn.
Now, commit entire project.
Then add the file to the repository and commit entire project again.
I hope this will solve your problem.
I am trying to ignore some files that I have already committed to the repository in subclipse
I followed this from Subclipse svn:ignore
You can't svn:ignore a file that is
already commited to repository.
So you must:
Delete it from the repository
Recreate it in Eclipse
Set svn:ignore on it via Team->Add to svn:ignore
I am still getting a greyed out menu when I select Team->Add to svn:ignore
I deleted the folder I don't want from the repository
I reverted the project Team->Revert (this is the bit I may have done wrong)
selected Team->Add to svn:ignore but it is greyed out.
what do I need to do?
You probably need to Update from svn, rather than reverting, to pull in the changes that you made in the repository.
Revert in Subversion just re-syncs your working copy with the server, at the version you had previously checked out. If you made the change elsewhere, you need to update your working copy to point to the newer version on the server: that's the update operation.
Working with Eclipse and SVN, how do I definitely remove a file from list to never synchronize it?
right click upon file to ignore * Team -> Add to svn:ignore
Edit : Are you serious? Then you are not using sublicpse
