I have a a project file under configuration control that always when I open the project, the IDE changes it, but with irrelevant changes, which I do not desire to make commit.
So I want to “freeze” this file, so it continues under version control, but the new changes are ignored by svn st command (ok, you could say for me just don’t commit! But that’s just what I’ve been doing, so I want a better solution). Maybe is there a property that I could make this?
Thanks.
If it has to be under version control, there is, probably, no way to ignore changes in it.
If it doesn’t have to be under version control just add it to SVN ignored files.
However — if the change is irrelevant, maybe you can prevent this file from change?
My IDE saves some internal version info into source files, so we wrote a small add-in to revert these changes on IDE exit — this solved the problem.
