How to add *.a files into repository using svnX?

Question

It seems that svnX silently ignores all *.a files. But I want to add some libraries into repository, how do I do it with svnX?

I found that I had to edit my ~/.subversion/config file.

Uncomment the global-ignores line and remove the *.a file type. After that .a files started showing up.

If you only add a *.a file occasionally, open Terminal.app and execute command:

svn add <*.a file path>

If successful, the file will appear in svnX.

I am not sure about svnX, but in general you might be able to add them manually by naming them explicitly. This overrides the "ignorance".
