Hey there!  We use Tortoise client to track the configuration files of a control systems software full of DBFs and XML and the like - and the software loves to keep adding new files without the user knowing.

What we have found is that some users forget to tick these non-versioned files during a commit, and this causes havoc when others get an update!

What we think would be great is if there was a way to show the commit dialog defaulted to "All", as in all files are ticked.  Or maybe if in Settings Dialogs 2 the "Select items automatically" had a setting to specify what is automatic - so we could include non-versioned files automatically?

My apologies if this has already been answered, it was hard to form a good search query for this question!

Thanks so much for your help!
Jason

there's no option to make TSVN auto-check unversioned files for a commit.
In your case, I would recommend you write a check-commit hook script that runs an 'svn st' to check if there are unversioned items, then compare those to the list of checked items in the commit dialog and reject the commit if there are unversioned items that are not checked.
