Subversion auto-props woes
This is driving me nuts so any advice from fellow users would be welcome.  I am using Subversion, with a copy of VisualSVN 1.6.1 installed on a Windows server.  On my PC I am using a combination of TortoiseSVN and the wonderful AnkhSVN Visual Studio plugin.  Everything works like a dream, but now I am trying use the `svn:keywords` feature so I can include `$Id$` at the top of all my source files.  Now, for existing files I can edit the SVN properties and add this keyword and it all works fine, but I want this done automatically for new files - and I cannot make it work.

According to the documentation you need to edit a special Subversion Config file located in your `C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Application Data\Subversion` folder.  My PC already had a copy of this file, so I changed it to look like this:

    [miscellany]
    enable-auto-props = yes
    
    [auto-props]
    *.cpp = svn:eol-style=native;svn:keywords=Author Date Id HeadURL Revision
    *.hpp = svn:eol-style=native;svn:keywords=Author Date Id HeadURL Revision
    *.rc = svn:eol-style=native;svn:keywords=Author Date Id HeadURL Revision
    *.rc2 = svn:eol-style=native;svn:keywords=Author Date Id HeadURL Revision
    *.cc = svn:eol-style=native;svn:keywords=Author Date Id HeadURL Revision
    *.c = svn:eol-style=native;svn:keywords=Author Date Id HeadURL Revision
    *.h = svn:eol-style=native;svn:keywords=Author Date Id HeadURL Revision
    *.wsf = svn:eol-style=native;svn:keywords=Author Date Id HeadURL Revision
    *.js = svn:eol-style=native;svn:keywords=Author Date Id HeadURL Revision
    *.htm = svn:eol-style=native;svn:keywords=Author Date Id HeadURL Revision
    *.html = svn:eol-style=native;svn:keywords=Author Date Id HeadURL Revision
    *.css = svn:eol-style=native;svn:keywords=Author Date Id HeadURL Revision

I then added a new file to an existing Visual Studio project (from within Visual Studio), added `$Id$` to the top and committed it - but, alas, the `svn:keywords` property is not being set.

Does anyone know how to get this working?  I even tried adding settings to the registry (in `HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Tigris.org\Subversion\Config`) but still no joy.  I then tried messing with Config files on the SVN server itself, but nothing seems to work.

I have obviously missed something blindingly obvious!
