Description tomzi 2013-03-05 08:24:50 UTC
Currently, when I 'Revert Modifications' (+Remove newly Added Files and Folders), also the Netbeans project files (nbactions, nb-configurations) will be deleted. 

But this is not desirable in most cases, since I'd have to change the JDK settings and goals... again for every project in my main project (I mean every submodule in the maven project)

Please add some 'Ignore List' to that feature :)

Shy don't you ignore the files permanently? Adding them to svn:ignore list will exclude them from all svn actions

I stepped into the same problem just now. But since it fully removes all project settings, I would even consider this not to be a P3 bug but rather P2.

So the solution that I would propose follows what Ondrej says, namely to set the nbproject folder automatically to be ignored by default.

A second, in my opinion not so good workaround, would be to pop-up a warning about the risks/results when trying to revert (with deleting new files) on the project node.

The third, even worse solution would be to disable the reversion (with deleting new files) for the project node.
