ignore

Binaries (under Linux) don't have an extension so I cannot exclude them using patterns. Thus when I use SVN add to add a directory I will get something like

$ svn add recursion_vector/
A         recursion_vector
A         recursion_vector/rec_vec.cxx
A         recursion_vector/rec_vec.h
A  (bin)  recursion_vector/rec_vec

Here rec_vec is the executable I would like to exclude. SVN obviously recognizes it as binary. Now can I tell Subversion to ignore all binary files?
