It solves your first case: your Unix editor will load the file from
the Samba share, transparently DTRT with respect to the line endings,
and preserve the original eol style when you save.

It would be complex to implement. I guess I'm -0, but if others need
this, we could file a Post-1.0 Enhancement issue.

For your second case:

Well, hmmm, a --with-eol argument only for "svn export" would be much
easier to implement (since no working copy has to remember the

Want to file a feature request for that somewhat more limited feature?
