Re: Unrecognized line ending style on svn:externals file

Just to follow up,

as svn:mime-type is set to application/octet-stream on the file in
question, meaning (if I have understood correctly) that it's a non
text file and svn/tsvn shouldn't bother about line endings AND the
"Error Unrecognized line ending style" actually imply this isn't
exactly what it does or IT DOES BOTHER about line endings, this must
be a bug, I cannot see it to be something else but question is if the
bug is in svn or tsvn?

Alternatively svn:mime-type really need to be set to something else,
but what?

Any help or input is welcommed.
