My understanding is that, by default, Subversion stores all files as they
are. If they have CRLF, then that is what is stored. Subversion only
stores files internally with Unix-style line endings if the svn:eol-style
property is set. Then is stores the files with Unix-style endings and
converts the files as appropriate based on the property value when in the
WC.
