Subversion is designed with a pretty clear policy governing such matters: don't screw up the user's files! If you happen to be coming from a CVS background, this will seem odd to you, because CVS's default mode of operation is to assume that a file is human-readable and that native newlines are desired, and will quite happily destroy the binary files you forget to add with the -kb flag. In Subversion, your file's contents are considered sacred. Unless you set the svn:eol-style property on a given file, well-behaved Subversion clients will not attempt to perform newline translation on that file. -- C.
