Only if you explicitly tell it to do this (with svn:eol-style) and I
consider it a seriously bad idea. If the same source tree checked out
with the same command gives you different results depending on which
platform the checkout happens (think Unix, think Windows, think Mac),
then IMHO all bets are off (what if your Windows checked out tool is
used to build a tree that ends up on an Unix host?)
A project should just set a line ending policy and stick to it. Asking
the source code management to patch this together will end up in
headaches.
