      controlled by the user.  Many of these options are of the kind
      that a user would wish to apply to all Subversion operations.
      So, rather than forcing users to remember command-line arguments
      for specifying these options, and to use them for every
      operation they perform, Subversion uses configuration files,
      segregated into a Subversion configuration area.</p><p>The Subversion <em class="firstterm">configuration area</em> is
      a two-tiered hierarchy of option names and their values.
      Usually, this boils down to a special directory that contains
      <em class="firstterm">configuration files</em> (the first tier),
      which are just text files in standard INI format (with
      “<span class="quote">sections</span>” providing the second tier).  These files
      can be easily edited using your favorite text editor (such as
      Emacs or vi), and contain directives read by the client to
      determine which of several optional behaviors the user
      prefers.</p><div class="sect2" lang="en" xml:lang="en"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a id="svn.advanced.confarea.layout"></a>Configuration Area Layout</h3></div></div></div><p>The first time that the <span class="command"><strong>svn</strong></span>
        command-line client is executed, it creates a per-user
        configuration area.  On Unix-like systems, this area appears
        as a directory named <code class="filename">.subversion</code> in the
        user's home directory.  On Win32 systems, Subversion creates a
        folder named <code class="filename">Subversion</code>, typically inside
        the <code class="filename">Application Data</code> area of the user's
        profile directory (which, by the way, is usually a hidden
        directory).  However, on this platform the exact location
        differs from system to system, and is dictated by the Windows
        registry.
        <sup>[<a id="id404737" href="#ftn.id404737" class="footnote">50</a>]</sup>
        We will refer to the per-user configuration area using its Unix
        name, <code class="filename">.subversion</code>.</p><p>In addition to the per-user configuration area, Subversion
        also recognizes the existence of a system-wide configuration
        area.  This gives system administrators the ability to
        establish defaults for all users on a given machine.  Note
        that the system-wide configuration area does not alone dictate
        mandatory policy—the settings in the per-user
        configuration area override those in the system-wide one, and
        command-line arguments supplied to the <span class="command"><strong>svn</strong></span>
        program have the final word on behavior.  On Unix-like
        platforms, the system-wide configuration area is
        expected to be the <code class="filename">/etc/subversion</code>
        directory; on Windows machines, it looks for a
        <code class="filename">Subversion</code> directory inside the common
        <code class="filename">Application Data</code> location (again, as
        specified by the Windows Registry).  Unlike the per-user
        case, the <span class="command"><strong>svn</strong></span> program does not attempt
        to create the system-wide configuration area.</p><p>The per-user configuration area currently contains three
        files—two configuration files (<code class="filename">config</code> and
        <code class="filename">servers</code>), and a <code class="filename">README.txt</code> 
        file which describes the INI format.  At the time of their
        creation, the files contain default values for each of the
        supported Subversion options, mostly commented out and grouped
        with textual descriptions about how the values for the key
        affect Subversion's behavior.  To change a certain behavior,
        you need only to load the appropriate configuration file into
        a text editor, and modify the desired option's value.  If at
        any time you wish to have the default configuration settings
        restored, you can simply remove (or rename) your configuration
        directory and then run some innocuous <span class="command"><strong>svn</strong></span>
        command, such as <span class="command"><strong>svn --version</strong></span>.  A new
        configuration directory with the default contents will be
        created.</p><p>The per-user configuration area also contains a cache of
        authentication data.  The <code class="filename">auth</code> directory
        holds a set of subdirectories that contain pieces of cached
        information used by Subversion's various supported
        authentication methods.  This directory is created in such a
        way that only the user herself has permission to read its
        contents.</p></div><div class="sect2" lang="en" xml:lang="en"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a id="svn.advanced.confarea.windows-registry"></a>Configuration and the Windows Registry</h3></div></div></div><p>In addition to the usual INI-based configuration area,
        Subversion clients running on Windows platforms may also use
        the Windows registry to hold the configuration data.  The
        option names and their values are the same as in the INI
        files.  The “<span class="quote">file/section</span>” hierarchy is
        preserved as well, though addressed in a slightly different
        fashion—in this schema, files and sections are just
        levels in the registry key tree.</p><p>Subversion looks for system-wide configuration values
        under the
        <code class="literal">HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tigris.org\Subversion</code>
        key.  For example, the <code class="literal">global-ignores</code> option,
        which is in the <code class="literal">miscellany</code> section of the
        <code class="filename">config</code> file, would be found at
        <code class="literal">HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tigris.org\Subversion\Config\Miscellany\global-ignores</code>.
        Per-user configuration values should be stored under
        <code class="literal">HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Tigris.org\Subversion</code>.
      </p><p>Registry-based configuration options are parsed
        <span class="emphasis"><em>before</em></span> their file-based counterparts, so
        are overridden by values found in the configuration files.  In
        other words, Subversion looks for configuration information in
        the following locations on a Windows system; lower-numbered
        locations take precedence over higher-numbered locations:</p><div class="orderedlist"><ol type="1"><li><p>Command-line options</p></li><li><p>The per-user INI files</p></li><li><p>The per-user Registry values</p></li><li><p>The system-wide INI files</p></li><li><p>The system-wide Registry values</p></li></ol></div><p>Also, the Windows Registry doesn't really support the
        notion of something being “<span class="quote">commented out</span>”.
        However, Subversion will ignore any option key whose name
        begins with a hash (<code class="literal">#</code>) character.  This
        allows you to effectively comment out a Subversion option
        without deleting the entire key from the Registry, obviously
        simplifying the process of restoring that option.</p><p>The <span class="command"><strong>svn</strong></span> command-line client never
        attempts to write to the Windows Registry, and will not
        attempt to create a default configuration area there.  You can
        create the keys you need using the <span class="command"><strong>REGEDIT</strong></span>
        program.  Alternatively, you can create a
        <code class="filename">.reg</code> file, and then double-click on that
        file from the Explorer shell, which will cause the data to be
        merged into your registry.</p><div class="example"><a id="svn.advanced.confarea.windows-registry.ex-1"></a><p class="title"><b>Example 7.1. Sample Registration Entries (.reg) File.</b></p><div class="example-contents"><pre class="programlisting">

          group name under the <code class="literal">groups</code> section.  If
          a match is made, Subversion then looks for a section in the

                command, Subversion lists unversioned files and
                directories along with the versioned ones, annotating
                them with a <code class="literal">?</code> character (see <a class="xref" href="svn.tour.cycle.html#svn.tour.cycle.examine.status" title="See an overview of your changes">the section called “See an overview of your changes”</a>).  Sometimes, it can
                be annoying to see uninteresting, unversioned
                items—for example, object files that result from
                a program's compilation—in this display.  The
                <code class="literal">global-ignores</code> option is a list of
                whitespace-delimited globs which describe the names of
                files and directories that Subversion should not
                display unless they are versioned.  The default value
                is <code class="literal">*.o *.lo *.la #*# .*.rej *.rej .*~ *~
                .#* .DS_Store</code>.</p><p>As well as <span class="command"><strong>svn status</strong></span>, the
                <span class="command"><strong>svn add</strong></span> and <span class="command"><strong>svn import</strong></span>
                commands also ignore files that match the list
                when they are scanning a directory.  You can override this
                behaviour for a single instance of any of these commands
                by explicitly specifying the file name, or by using
                the <code class="option">--no-ignore</code> command-line flag.</p><p>For information on more fine-grained control of

                repository stores log messages in UTF-8, and assumes
                that your log message is written using your operating
                system's native locale.  You should specify a
                different encoding if your commit messages are written

                <span class="command"><strong>svn</strong></span> subcommand.  This is generally
                convenient for people developing software, because
                build systems often look at timestamps as a way of
                deciding which files need to be recompiled.</p><p>In other situations, however, it's sometimes nice
                for the working copy files to have timestamps that
                reflect the last time they were changed in the
                repository.  The <span class="command"><strong>svn export</strong></span> command
                always places these “<span class="quote">last-commit

          the Subversion client's ability to automatically set
          properties on files when they are added or imported.
          It contains any number of key-value pairs in the
          format <code class="literal">PATTERN = PROPNAME=PROPVALUE</code>
          where <code class="literal">PATTERN</code> is a file pattern
          that matches a set of filenames and the rest of the
          line is the property and its value.  Multiple matches
          on a file will result in multiple propsets for that
          file; however, there is no guarantee that auto-props
          will be applied in the order in which they are listed
          in the config file, so you can't have one rule
          “<span class="quote">override</span>” another.  You can find several
          examples of auto-props usage in the
          <code class="filename">config</code> file.  Lastly, don't
          forget to set <code class="literal">enable-auto-props</code> to
          <code class="literal">yes</code> in the <code class="literal">miscellany</code>
