wml files not getting right svn propset

[arma]

Whenever we add a new wml file to the website, or a new .c file to the code,
we are failing to do the proplist thing to them. This causes confusing bugs
that we don't catch for months.

Does svn have a way to automatically propset certain things for certain file
extensions or directories or something?

Yes, but it's a local option, not a repository-wide option. Look at the auto-props section of your
~/.subversion/config file. Remember to set enable-auto-props=yes , too.

I do not see a way to do this automatically at the repository level.

There's a thread about doing this with a post-commit hook here:

It looks tricky and error-prone.

Closing as won't-fix: the post-commit trick is way error prone and the local fix is pretty easy.
