IMO, managing line endings shouldn't be a function of a vcs--a vcs should _never_ alter the data that it keeps.
Subversion preserves newline endings unless the svn:eol-style property is set to configure certain files to either force a certain newline ending, or use the newline ending that's native to the user doing the checkout. This is a feature that's incredibly useful for developers working on cross-platform projects, and I consider it something every VCS should have. You probably have no idea how much time and hassle this saves cross-platform developers when you have the correct properties set on files.
