- Open your command-line tool and set your default editor as nano, vi, vim, or any other that you prefer, as follows:
$ export EDITOR=nano
If you don’t have a preference, we would recommend using nano, which is very intuitive and a simple text editor for the terminal.
- Then, go to your project directory and type the following command:
$ svn propedit svn:ignore myproject
- This will open a temporary file in the editor, where you need to put the following file and directory patterns for Subversion to ignore:
# Project files and directories
static
media
tmp
# Byte-compiled / optimized / DLL files
__pycache__
*.py[cod]
*$py.class
# C extensions
*.so
# PyInstaller
*.manifest
*.spec
# Installer logs
pip-log.txt
pip-delete-this-directory.txt
# Unit test / coverage reports
htmlcov
.tox
.coverage
.coverage.*
.cache
nosetests.xml
coverage.xml
*.cover
# Translations
*.pot
# Django stuff:
*.log
# PyBuilder
target
- Save the file and exit the editor. For every other Python package in your project, you will need to ignore several files and directories too. Just go to a directory and type the following command:
$ svn propedit svn:ignore .
- Then, put this in the temporary file, save it, and close the editor:
# Byte-compiled / optimized / DLL files
__pycache__
*.py[cod]
*$py.class
# C extensions
*.so
# PyInstaller
*.manifest
*.spec
# Installer logs
pip-log.txt
pip-delete-this-directory.txt
# Unit test / coverage reports
htmlcov
.tox
.coverage
.coverage.*
.cache
nosetests.xml
coverage.xml
*.cover
# Translations
*.pot
# Django stuff:
*.log
# PyBuilder
