Re: mime-types enhancement

You're right; I can use auto-props for that. The example in the config
file doesn't seem correct, as it seems to try to set svn:mimetype
instead of svn:mime-type. And despite my original post, I'd actually
*prefer* a repository-wide mapping instead of per-user; just for myself,
I need to keep the .subversion/ files on my laptop in synch with the
ones on the server. Never mind what other people check in.

Of course, with per-user config, it applies to *all repositories* I
connect to. So, to get the best of both worlds, how about both? If so,
per-repository should override per-user, I think.
