How to set svn:ignore with multiple values?
Type exactly like here with line breaks:
svn propset svn:ignore "file1
file2
file3" dir1
If you want to pass a list from another command, try xargs.
Unfortunately, the svn command doesn't allow reading from stdin with -F -.
One line solution:
svn propset svn:ignore "file1"$'\n'"file2"$'\n'"file3" dir1
Adding multiple entries is much easier. Use the following command:
svn propedit svn:ignore .
This will open a text editor. Now you can add multiple entries easily.
