How to exclude svn metadata while synchronizing with unison?

Question

How can I exclude all the svn metadata while synchronizing with unison?

Answer 1

Add

ignore = Path {.svn}

to the .prf file in your .unison folder.

Answer 2

In my case (Version 2.40.65) the accepted solution don't work. It only works for the .svn folder located directly in the root directory I am synchronizing.

The following line effectively does the ignore:

ignore = Name {.svn}

The Unison manual for version the Version 2.40.65 I am using confirms that.

Answer 3

If you're still having trouble, the following worked for me on Windows:

ignore = Path {*/.svn}
