This is impossible until there is a 1-to-1 mapping for .bzrignore and
svn:ignore properties. Imagine a situation where somebody push a
revision to subversion from Bazaar that adds a .bzrignore file. If
somebody else then pulls that revision, they don't get the .bzrignore
file (because it was never added to Subversion) and thus end up with a
corrupt revision.

I'll mark this as a duplicate of the bug requesting for svn:ignore
support.

Cheers,
