Well certainly it takes care of the line feeds if you create the property svn:eol-style=native at some point after committing the original file. A dump after that commit shows the entire file repeated with the new eols ... But I've adjusted my script now, any files the script identifies (by extension) as needing svn:eol-style=native are appropriately translated into the dump file. I am quite pleased with the result, it certainly seems to solve my file time-stamp problem well enough. Still to do some more testing but it looks promising. Anyone here interested in looking-at/experimenting-with the powershell script let me know, I am happy to share it. Does this list accept attachments or can that be done only via private email? Thanks again. -- Geoff Worboys Telesis Computing
