SVN remove files from the to-be-committed list

I had set up ignore rules on my bin / object folders for my project. I then tried to do an add on all the other files with svn add * . It seemed as if the ignore only applies to the svn status command so all my bin and object folder contents showed up. Now I have not done a commit on the list, but when I do an svn status I see all those nasty files ready to go when I send that command. Is there a way to remove them from that list or clear that list completely? Also, what is that list called? Thanks in advance!

If you have TortoiseSVN installed, you can use the explorer right-click menu context: TortoiseSVN, Unadd.

Note: You'll only see unadd if, like in your case, you've tagged folder/file to be added.

svn revert bin

Would remove the bin directory from being added at the next commit.

Or if you would like to recursively revert (sometimes useful)

svn revert -R bin

You should revert the added files that you don't want committed.

To ignore those folders in the future, add them to the svn:ignore list of the parent folder. Read all about ignoring unversioned items here.
