How to delete or clear the svn:ignore list from base repository recursively. I want to clear all svn:ignore

Question

How to delete or clear the svn:ignore list from base repository recursively. Basically I want no filter or files in the ignore list without having to track down every single file and create them to unignore them individually.

A previous developper added a bunch of files to the ignore list at random levels of the repository and I want to remove ALL elements of the ignore list.

Don't want to do it manually for each single file/folder.

Answer 1

Get all definitions: $ svn propget -R svn:ignore . and delete with svn propdel

Answer 2

Setting an empty svn:ignore property in the top-level folder and checking the Apply property recursively option seems to do the trick:

It only changes the folders that already had the property set and it seems to actually remove the property altogether.
