In my project there are certain directories and certain php files which are very large in size due to which my build is failing and I want to exclude them in my build.xml
Ques1- Do I have to write the --ignore="path/filename" for every php file in the project?
Ques2- There are certain files which are not php but .dat so should I mention these files in the --ignore too?
Ques3- Can I specify to exclude files based on their size such that I exclude all the files larger than 500kb?
My current xml file looks like this:

And I am getting errors like these

What should I do to solve it? If I manually remove the large files from the directory then the build just passes but I want the build to run automatically checking out the code base from svn which will have these large files.
Ques4- Can I configure my checkout in such a way that these files dont get checked out?
For every target you can use fileset property or add exclude directories manually
Hope my answer will be helpful for someone.
