When adding a solution to a subversion repository with Tortoise, how to avoid adding unnecessary files?

You can add specific filenames and extensions to the Global ignore pattern in the TortoiseSVN settings dialog.

If you want to include only the relevant files, then you should consider using AnkhSvn, a VS2010 add-in for Subversion support. It lets you check in only the files that are included in your projects.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
