You basically put the files you want to commit on the command line  svn ci file1 file2 dir1 file3

Sure  Just list the files     svn ci -m  Fixed all those horrible crashes  foo bar baz graphics logo png   I m not aware of a way to tell it to ignore a certain set of files  Of course  if the files you do want to commit are easily listed by the shell  you can use that     svn ci -m  No longer sets printer on fire  printer-driver   c   You can also have the svn command read the list of files to commit from a file     svn ci -m  Now works  --targets fix4711 txt

I make a  sub folder named  hide   move the file I don t want committed to there  Then do my commit  ignoring complaint about the missing file  Then move the hidden file from hide back to     I know of no downside to this tactic

Use changelists   The advantage over specifying files is that you can visualize and confirm everything you wanted is actually included before you commit     svn changelist fix-issue-237 foo c  Path  foo c  is now a member of changelist  fix-issue-237     That done  svn now keeps things separate for you   This helps when you re juggling multiple changes    svn status A       bar c A       baz c  --- Changelist  fix-issue-237   A       foo c   Finally  tell it to commit what you wanted changed     svn commit --changelist fix-issue-237 -m  Issue 237

Besides listing the files explicitly as shown by unwind and Wienczny  you can setup change lists and checkin these  These allow you to manage disjunct sets of changes to the same working copy    You can read about them in the online version of the excellent SVN book

Due to my subversion state  I had to get creative   svn st showed M A and   statuses   I only wanted M and A so     svn st   grep   A  M    cut -d    -f8-  gt  targets txt   This command says find all the lines output by svn st that start with M or A  cut using space delimiter  then get colums 8 to the end   Dump that into targets txt and overwrite   Then modify targets txt to prune the file list further   Then run below to commit   svn ci -m  My commit message  --targets targets txt   Probably not the most common use case  but hopefully it helps someone
