Description auzigog 2008-11-05 19:44:33 UTC 
If I have a file I want to ignore that is already part of the repository, I have to:

1) Remove the file
2) Commit it's removal
3) Re-add it
4) (Now NetBeans gives me the options to ignore it) ... Ignore it
5) Commit (so the property changes go through).

Other subversion systems allow you to do this all in one step just by ignoring a file that is already committed.

IMO a very useful feature simplifying users' workflow a lot and dismissing a need for IDE-internal workarounds such as "Exclude" (instead of versioning's Ignore) which are then difficult to communicate through UI and confusing for newbies. Any chance to get this into next release?
