It's natural to compile the asciidoc file in the same folder and hence the generated html file will be added while committing. If we are supposed to move the generated html files each time before committing, it would be nice to know the reason for it.

I couldn't find any such file. However, I found that there is a property
called svn:ignore which can be set to the pattern of files and directories
to exclude while committing. After moving to the directory containing the
file to be excluded, I tried the following command
svn propset svn:ignore . *.html
It says "svn: Cannot set 'svn:ignore' on a file ('php-manual.html')". How
should I fix this?

Fixed it. I've just swapped the arguments. The command should be
svn propset svn:ignore *.html .
I just couldn't understand the error message properly. Sorry for the silly
doubt!
