$svn diff > patchfile

creates a nice patchfile. However, using TortoiseSVN under Windows I’ve set some files as being “ignored-on-commit”, that is, it is under version control but doesn’t get selected, when i do a commit.

TortoiseSVN seemingly handles this via a custom entry in .svn/entries for this file. Note, that it it isn’t a normal SVN property (that is, not fetchable via svn propget).

My problem is, that I want to create a patch file via command line (via Cygwin’s bash and SVN port), but this patch file should not include the files with this ‘ignore-on-commit’ flag.

Has anyone an idea how to do this (besides walking with awk recursively through each .svn/entries…)?

    Apparently it’s a special changelist entry. As for how to then ignore the file/s from the command line, it doesn’t look like there’s a particularly easy way.
