There is no standard - I suspect many people find auto-props an incomplete
solution, and thus do not bother to use them at all.

My impression of the unspoken consensus is:

Set/edit svn:ignore as necessary.
Set svn:eol-style=native on text files.
Make sure that svn:mime-type=application/octet-stream is set on binary
files.

Max.
