Thank you for your answer. Unfortunately it didn't help.
I did remove the comment on the global-ignores line. It didn't help. *.a
files are still marked as ignored.
This is a snipped of the config file.
[miscellany]
### Set global-ignores to a set of whitespace-delimited globs
### which Subversion will ignore in its 'status' output.
global-ignores = *.o *.lo *.la #*# .*.rej *.rej .*~ *~ .#* .DS_Store
Best Regards

I use an subversion 1.5 server on Linux system with Linux and Windows

projects need to add *.a files to the repository. These files are ignored
by default if not explicit added. Is this intended or a bug?
Lets say I move a file to a working copy with the extension *.a. It gets
immediately marked as ignored. I don't have the "global ignored" parameter
set. This is very annoying since my projects have many *.a files in
different folders.
This is the intended behavior. *.a is in the default global-ignores. If you
don't want to ignore .a files, set a global-ignores line that does not
mention .a files.
