svn only "canonicalizes" line endings if you set the svn:eol-style
property on a file to "native". Otherwise it treats all data as
data. Wouldn't it be ridiculous if you had a completely win32
project, and the server stored everything as LF in the repository? Of
course it would.

Have you read about svn:eol-style in the Book?
