each directory now has properties and one of those properties is which files
to ignore.  see

  http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.0/apas06.html

for metadata info in general,

  http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.0/ch07s02.html

for property foo, specifically grep for svn:ignore.

for other useful cvs to svn migration stuff

  http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.0/apa.html

is helpful if you haven't already seen it.

for me, I've found this entirely unintuitive, since I can't seem to find a
way to _add_ files to ignore without first gleaning which are currently
ignored from .svn/.  that is, since there seems to be no propadd option, I'm
left with recreating .cvsignore from .svn/dir-props, adding the new file to
ignore, then slurping up .cvsignore svn propset.  and I always seem to cause
some sort of conflict when I want to set properties on . instead of a
directory below it.

so, if anyone has any pointers here, that would be great :)
