Getting subversion to ignore multiple files in a directory
For example to ignore all files with a .jpg file extension the following works:
nostromo$ svn propset svn:ignore "*.jpg" .
But when you now want to ignore multiple files like say "*.gif *.jpg and *.png" using "*.gif *.jpg *.png" does not work as expected:
nostromo$ svn propedit svn:ignore .
Which will give you your editor (vim) in my case and just add the file pattern under each file pattern e.g.:
*.gif
*.jpg
*.png
Don't forget to commit to the repository.
