Seeing SVN global ignores

The output of

svn status

will, by default, hide files with names matching the patterns added to global-ignores or set with svn propset svn:ignore, which is a good thing.

But if you're migrating an entire repository, it might be helpful to see everything that Subversion sees, including those files which Subversion ignores. If so, use

svn status --no-ignore
instead.
