The Subversion repository will verify that you have set the mime-type and eol-style properly
What does it mean for mime-type to be "property set"? Subversion only cares if the mime type is "text/*" or not, and otherwise mime type is irrelevant.
So, what exactly is enforced?
I've rewritten that part, too.
All files committed need to have `svn:mime-type` set; if that MIME type is text/something, then the file must have svn:eol-style set.
Are you sure this is going to be worth the trouble? Almost every tool out there is EOL-style-agnostic, which means that most of our source files will work properly when treated as binary. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting http://www.boost-consulting.com The Astoria Seminar ==> http://www.astoriaseminar.com
