SmartSVN how to revert ignored files

Question

I ignored a few files using SmartSVN. Now, I want to revert this changes. I read that the following command can be used:

svn propdel svn:ignore -R

But There is error: "The path '.' appears to be part of a Subversion 1.7 or greater working copy. Please upgrade your Subversion client to use this working copy."

What is the best way to revert ignore operation ?

Answer 1

To undo the ignore, you can use SmartSVN: just right click the directory in which the ignored files reside, in the pop-up menu choose Properties -> Ignore Patterns...

You will get to the dialog, which shows all file patterns set to be ignored. Remove the ones not needed and save. Locally it will be effective immediately, but you have to commit this property change (the directory) to make this change permanent in the repository.
