| 127 | === A useful setting === |
| 128 | As you might have noticed (or in case you haven't checked out yet: will) the Thumbs.db files can cause some trouble when updating. They're Windows system files (hidden by default) that are different from computer to computer and thus causes trouble if people commit them. |
| 129 | There is a way to make Tortoise SVN ignore these files, but everyone has to edit the settings (more on that below) or just avoid committing these files of course, but as it's easy to do it by mistake here's some info on how to edit the settings. |

You can get to the General settings by right-clicking on a file/folder that's downloaded from SVN and there, in the Tortoise SVN submenu, left-click on Settings) The one we're interested in now is "Global ignore pattern", in that box please enter "Thumbs.db" (without the quotation marks, but with the capital T) and click confirm. |
