   Strange SVN commit problem
  Hi!I am having problems committing a Google Ads library file to SVN. The filename is libGoogleAds.a and when adding it to a folder TortoiseSVN is automatically giving it the "ignore" icon. There are no ignore properties set for .a files in the working copy. This also happens with the SVN client "Versions" on Mac OSX.I cannot relly believe that .a is somehow special to SVN, since it's a very common library extension on unix systems.Any idea how to solve this? Thanks!   
Quote:I cannot relly believe that .a is somehow special to SVN, since it's a very common library extension on unix systems.Well, it's exactly special because .a is considered a more or less "transient" resource on Unix, since you'll normally build .a files from source, keeping a (machine-specific) copy of it in SVN is a rather rare use case (such as binary-only-licensed libraries).It might be a global client setting, possibly preconfigured by TortoiseSVN. Read this if you haven't already.   ;  Moving to the lounge, as it doesn't really apply to Software Engineering.   ;  I recently had a problem with Tortoise SVN where it showed my files as being committed when they actually weren't. I had to rebuild the project on my local machine before I could commit my modified files. If nothing else works, try recreating your project in Tortoise.
