Addition to "Ignoring Unversioned Items"

Hi..

Could some additional words be added to the "Ignoring Unversioned Items" section describing Subversions default behavior if the variable global-ignores is not defined at any level and the svn:ignore property is not set?  Intuitively, one would think if these two parameters are not set nothing would be ignored.  However, Subversion's default behavior appears to minimally ignore *.o and *.a files.

Some additional discussion on this subject can be found at...

Thanks
