Auto-props are only applied to files when they are added to the
repository - they aren't "retroactive." So, if these files existed in
the repository before you set up your config file this way, that's the
issue.
There is a Python script, svn_apply_autoprops.py (Google for it),
which when pointed at a working copy will read your config file and
apply the properties set in auto-props. HOWEVER, it will also
overwrite existing properties, so you have to be careful.
