There is a master subversion repository that I’ve cloned a git repo from. I’ve got a lot of ignored files in my .gitignore that I’d like the svn repository to know about.
I know that I can use git svn show-ignore to pull the ignored list from subversion, but how can I do the reverse? Send a list of files to be ignored back to the svn repo?
Git version (and git-svn is at the same version):
git --version
git version 1.7.0.5
Ok, so one (annoying) method that I’ve found is to:
(convenience step) add the gitignore file to the repository so that it is tracked.
Do an
svn checkout.svn propedit svn:ignore ./Add in all the stuff that’s in the tracked gitignore file.
This is pretty ugly, though, and who likes to actually touch & checkout svn when you’re working with git? Anyone have a better alternative?
