“Catastrophic” repository “corruption”? This sounds very strongly like an urban legend. Perhaps some files had later to be fixed. But that shouldn't be out of the realm of normal Mercurial commands (aka "edit file to fix endings, then hg commit and hg push"). > So I think it's absolutely necessary that files with incorrect > eol-style are blocked from being pushed.
