Git-SVN does not currently use the svn:global-ignores property added in Subversion 1.8 when showing or creating .gitignore files. This causes Git-SVN to track files that are ignored by this directive in Subversion. The following patches add svn:global-ignores to the list of public svn properties, and update git svn show-ignore and git svn create-ignore to use this attribute (as well as svn:ignore).
