5 Ok, you're right. But svn status simply sucks:
6
7 [usr/portage/eclass] % touch x11.eclass.rej
8 [usr/portage/eclass] % svn status
9 ? files
10 [usr/portage/eclass] %
11
12 In other words, it auto-ignores stuff that really causes the messed up
13 manifests if someone isn't paying attention. IIRC this ignorance isn't
14 limited to .rej, but also other extentions, such as the trailing ~,
15 which some editors leave behind. I guess we need to use --no-ignore,
16 and then also recognise the "I" entries. Bah.
