On Windows this creates a file like this:

[[[
Line1<CR><LF>
Line2<CR><CR><LF>
]]]

From the ActivePython 2.5.2 docs for os.linesep:

The string used to separate (or, rather, terminate) lines on the
current platform. This may be a single character, such as '\n' for
POSIX or '\r' for Mac OS, or multiple characters, for example, '\r\n'
for Windows. Do not use os.linesep as a line terminator when writing
files opened in text mode (the default); use a single '\n' instead, on
all platforms.

> svntest.main.file_write('A/mu', content2)

This creates a file like this:

[[[
Line1<CR><CR><LF>
Line2<CR><CR><LF>
]]]

Because os.linesep -> '\r\n' -> written as '\r\r\n' to a file opened
in text mode.

To fix the first file just call svntest.main.file_write() usings mode
'w' to open the file. This causes the explicit '\n' and '\r\n' to get
written without any conversion. To fix the second file just change
the content2 string to have explicit '\n's which get converted by
Python to the native eol:
