Question

Is it possible to export an SVN directory while ignoring certain file extensions? (Say, .cpp?)

I need to export my header files, which contain my library’s symbols, to some other folder where I’ll zip them up along with the finished static/dynamic library products. Normally I’d just move the header files up a level in the directory and use the --depth option, but a few of the headers #include other required headers deeper in the directory.

I couldn’t find a way to selectively export a directory, but what you can do is export it normally and then run the following on the new directory:

find NewDirectory -name \*.Extension -delete

This will remove all *.Extension files.
