Hi, Using Subversion "trunk" on Windows built from TortoiseSVN.
I would like to set the svn:ignore property to * on a certain directory. (I'm trying to ignore everything since I'd only want to explicitly add a few subdirectories). I thought this would do the trick C:\wc>svn propset svn:ignore * directoryname But alas it expands the * to all files in the current directory. I'd like to quote the * so the property is set to exactly *. I've found ways to quote the * (for example '*') but in those cases the property is set to also include the quotes. I've digged around and found a few messages in the archive indicating that Subversion on Windows is using setargv.obj and then the following thread on Stackoverflow [1] indicating that setargv.obj doesn't have a way to avoid wildcard expansion. Does anyone have a trick up the sleve? The following seems to work but it feels a bit unintuitive: echo * | svn propset -F - svn:ignore directoryname Kind regards, Daniel [1] https://stackoverflow.com/questions/47512829/is-it-possible-to-quote-escape-command-line-arguments-on-windows-while-linking-s
