i though i understood but does not seem to be working as i expected my current dir structure is / /inc /userdirs/a/aa /userdirs/b/ba /userdirs/a hole bunch of recursive dirs /bunchofotherdirs
so when i do a svn up i want to ignore or not update userdirs and below inc/settings.php i have created a file in / called svnIgnoreFiles.me i then did [root@moosejaw html]# svn propset svn:ignore -F svnIgnoreFiles.me . property 'svn:ignore' set on '.' i delete userdirs/* but when i do a svn up it still brings down from svn all the userdirs what part am i missing?? thanks Randy
