By my reading of the red book, I don't believe there is anything you can do to avoid it.
Without the "eol-style" property set, subversion accepts whatever style of line endings are in the file - so if a windoze user adds the file then they will be CRLF - if its unix, then just LF. Adding an "eol-style" property of "native" to an existing artifact is going to cause subversion to change any line endings that are not "LF". Therefore, I believe that if setting this property causes a load of changes its because of what line endings are already in the repository. http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.1/ch07s02.html#svn-ch-7-sect-2.3.5 I tried a quick search of the subversion user list, but didn't find anything useful on this: http://dir.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.subversion.user http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ProjectMailingListList Niall ----- Original Message ----- From: "Wendy Smoak" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Sunday, September 18, 2005 11:58 PM > There are four tlds, thousands of lines long, and when I add the > svn:eol-style native property, it's showing the text as modified.
