I have to suggest that netbeans probably considers the `dist` folder as its own preserve and is the likely candidate for `cleaning` those files whenever you do a clean (re)build. It is very unlikely that any subversion client would be deleting `ignored` files (and if they are that should be considered a bug). Can you modify your app to search for your support files in a way that you can configure to be somewhere else? Regards, ~ Mark C
