Some file types (suo, dll, pdb) kept causing conflicts in our svn repository so I went ahead and set those file types to be ignored by svn. When I try a new commit now the file types still show up in the list of files that are to be commited. I am assuming this is because the files are already under source control. How do I ensure the files do not show up when trying t commit?
Like you guessed, it is because those files are already being tracked by SVN. SVN-ignore only works for files that are not in the repository.
Therefore, you should remove the files (using
svn delete) from the working copy, commit that, and then you should be ok.You should probably ignore the whole build output directory, as you don’t want to commit any of the files that are built, no matter what their file type.
