[TxMt] Subversion --ignore-externals on Commit

[Ryan Bates]

Hi,

If I edit a file which is considered "external" to my subversion  
repository (think plugin in a Rails app) and then run the Commit  
command from the Subversion bundle, it will include that file in the  
commit process. But of course this will fail because I can't update a  
file that isn't in my repository (it's external). I can uncheck the  
check box every time but that is kind of a pain.

So I dug around in the Subversion bundle and changed line 94 of  
svn_commit.rb to this:
status_command = %Q{"#{@svn_tool}" status --ignore-externals # 
{@paths_to_commit.quote_for_shell_arguments}}

That just adds the "--ignore-externals" option so I no longer have  
this problem. It makes sense to do this because the normal "svn  
commit" command doesn't include external files. It would be great if  
this change could be made to the original bundle so this ugly hack  
won't be necessary. Thanks.

Regards,

Ryan
