Should I simply update my local configuration file to include the
line:
*.svg = svn:eol-style=native; svn:mime-type=image/svg+xml
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
With this autoprop set, `svn add` gets into trouble (at least for me) adding a file with extension .svg. I had to change the svn:mime-type to text/svg+xml to get it to work.
I've got
*.svg = svn:eol-style=native; svn:mime-type=image/svg+xml
And it previously worked OK for me.
And many existing files are of type image/svg+xml
Now when I try to add a new svg file
I get
Command: Add Error: File Error:
'I:\boost-sandbox\math_toolkit\libs\math\doc\sf_and_dist\graphs\laplace_pdf.
svg' Error: has binary mime type property
Since svg is actually pure xml, text.svg+xml might make more sense.
But something appears to have changed.
The existing .svg files have the property svn:mime-type=image/svg+xml set, but *not* the svn:eol-style property.
BTW image/svg+xml is the recomended Mime type for SVG's, but since they don't display in a web browser correctly when served from SVN (probably some SVN pluggin error?), we might actually be better off with text/xml as the mime type :-(
Anyhow stop trying to set the eol-style and try again.
