Git-SVN does not currently use the svn:global-ignores property added in Subversion 1.8 when showing or creating .gitignore files. This causes Git-SVN to track files that are ignored by this directive in Subversion.

The following patches add svn:global-ignores to the list of public svn properties, and update git svn show-ignore and git svn create-ignore to use this attribute (as well as svn:ignore).

Alex Galvin (2):
  git-svn: add public property `svn:global-ignores`
  git-svn: use `svn:global-ignores` to create .gitignore

     +    Subversion 1.8 added a new property `svn:global-ignores`. It
     +    contains a list of patterns used to determine what files should
     +    be ignored. If Git-SVN is going to ignore these files as well, it
     +    is important that we do not skip over directories that have this
     +    property set.

     +    `svn:global-ignores` contains a list of file patterns that should
     +    not be tracked in version control. The syntax of these patterns is
     +    the same as `svn:ignore`. Their semantics differ: patterns in
     +    `svn:global-ignores` apply to all paths under the directory where
     +    they apply, while `svn:ignore` only applies to the directory's
     +    immediate children.
