Still seems weird that a > working copy diff should show this though. What do you mean with working copy diff? The file didn't change for Tortoise, as eol-style: native "reverts" the LF-changes in the repo transparantly in your working copy. That's what you wanted. > I still wonder whether > this whole native eol thing is going to bite me in the arse later > and cause a load of conflicts that rattle around the codebase for > ages (over the years svn has unfortunately taught me to expect this kind of > stuff). It may, at least with everything which works on bytes and different environment, like hashes, signatures, reading for some reason from your versioned files with some tools etc. Those things will become error prone, as depending on your environment you may work on different line endings. > What I don't accept though is that svn 1.7 is performing correctly. > The merge *physically changed* all the source files in my working > copy to LF line endings on a windows boc. That *cannot* be right. But that's exactly what the documentation says Subversion will do. :-) Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Thorsten Schöning -- Thorsten Schöning E-Mail:thorsten.schoen...@am-soft.de AM-SoFT IT-Systeme http://www.AM-SoFT.de/ Telefon.............030-2 1001-310 Fax...............05151- 9468- 88 Mobil..............0178-8 9468- 04 AM-SoFT GmbH IT-Systeme, Brandenburger Str. 7c, 31789 Hameln AG Hannover HRB 207 694 - Geschäftsführer: Andreas Muchow
