RE: Re: Select unversioned resources on commit

I know that it's very old topic, but I hope to get answer.

I am using Subclipse 1.8.16. That parameter: "Select unversioned recources on commit" is not present in that version. Probably it was removed during that 6 years since the first post was written in that topic.

IMHO it was very helpful option. In my case there are a lot of temporary files generated inside project. It is not efficient to declare ignored resources pattern for all of them or perform svn:ignore actions.

I am wondering if it will be possible to get that checkbox (Select unversioned resources on commit) back?
