Recursive add adds ignored files, whether they are ignored by global ignores or 
by an svn:ignore on the directory in which the item lives.

This means that you can't do an add at the top of the tree to add whatever is 
new, because doing so adds the ignored stuff, ignored backup files, *.pyc and 
various other junk.

It means having to go and add things individually which risks forgetting 
something, which is very easy to do, or doing the recursive add and going 
through and deleting all the stuff you didn't want, which is a pain. Perhaps 
there is a third alternative that would make my life easier that someone can 
suggest, but this has bugged me for a long time. Showing new stuff with check 
boxes when doing a commit so that add and commit are combined is a nice 
solution, but just not adding ignored stuff on recursive add is all I'm looking 
for.

Thank you.
