If you create a new Portfile, you should set svn:eol-style to

If you add any patches to the repository, don't set any properties

If you add files which aren't patches or Portfiles..
is the file a binary file?
if yes, set svn:mime-type to application/octet-stream
if no, do the line endings matter? if they don't, set svn:eol-
style to native
If you don't want to worry about properties, it's not a big deal if
you set none of them, but if possible I'd like the repository to be
consistent about this.
The committer must also ensure that they have not already set up
Subversion auto-props definitions which conflict with these
guidelines, or must remember to undo what their auto-props did before
committing. For example, I cannot imagine anyone deliberately setting
svn:eol-style on PNG images before committing, but I can very well
imagine someone inadvertently configuring an auto-props rule which
sets svn:eol-style on all files (à la "* = svn:eol-style=native").
