How do I ignore a directory with SVN?

Jason's answer will do the trick. However, instead of setting svn:ignore to "." on the cache directory, you may want to include "cache" in the parent directory's svn:ignore property, in case the cache directory is not always present. I do this on a number of "throwaway" folders.
