Dear Mr./Ms. Does SVN support file with the encoding UTF-16LE as the text file? I have a text file("test.txt") and the file's encoding is UTF-16LE. I want SVN to treate this file("test.txt") as a text file, so I change its property svn:mime-type: application/octet-stream to svn:mime-type:text/plain. SVN will insert the utf-8 string ("<<<<<<< .mine" , "|||||||| .r2", ">>>>>>>> .r3") in the conflicting area of "test.txt" When "test.txt" conflict occurs. Because the file's encoding is UTF-16LE,the content of the "test.txt" is garbled.
What should I do to make SVN insert the UTF-16LE string ("<<<<<<< .mine" , "|||||||| .r2", ">>>>>>>> .r3") in the conflicting area of "test.txt"? Thank you! The steps of my operation: 1. Add “test.txt” with the encoding UTF-16LE to the working copy. 2. Change its property to svn:mime-type:text/plain , and commit it. 3. Check out it to working copy 1 and working copy 2. 4. Insert new line with content "111" at the end of "test.txt" at the working copy 1, and commit it. 5. Insert new line with content "222" at the end of "test.txt" at the working copy 2. 6. Update working copy 2. "test.txt" conflict occurs. Best wishes.
