Some files shouldn’t be committed into version control. Usually things generated by the computer (i.e. exe’s, dlls, etc.) and user specific files (i.e. *.suo, *.user, etc.)
Here is the global ignore pattern I use for TortoiseSVN to exclude such files.
<pattern>
*.o *.lo *.la *.al .libs *.so *.so.[0-9]* *.a *.pyc *.pyo *.rej *~ #*# .#* .*.swp .DS_Store _ReSharper.* *.resharper *.suo *.user bin obj
</ pattern>
Hope it helps someone.
