Believe me, if I was ever able to get a consistent feel for whether this
would be accepted, it would have been done back in May.
I'd prefer to have no 'officially supported' migration option across
platforms, since migration through filesystem-level copying will not
take the subversion line ending settings into account, but hey, if
people want support for both directories I'll hack that in.
All I want from this discussion is a solid 'yes' or 'no' on whether this
change would be accepted for 1.0. Even with windows problems, I don't
see this sort of aesthetic change being accepted within the 1.x stable
series, as it will cause user working-copy migration issues.
I think the users and developers have made their case. So the people who
need to make this decision should go huddle now, and tell us either 1)
the change will be approved for 1.0, or 2) ASP.NET is not supported
officially by subversion due to Microsoft platform issues.
Working around the issues between subversion and vs.net has become
second-nature to me now. While I personally think this issue should be
fixed, these threads are much more annoying - so my main hope is just
for some form of decisive action before the end of this thread.
