And it works quite well - most of the time....

A high proportion of them (around 20 percent) seem to be stuck in my Windows native style (CRLF) even though they're theoretically set to my preferred style of LF (at least, that's what it says when I examine their properties).

In both cases, TSVN goes through the motions and appears to be doing something. But at the end of the exercise, the files are still CRLF. Does anyone have any ideas about what could be wrong? Is it possible that TSVN thinks they're binary files for some reason?
I'm not sure that the line ending is changed on existing files in your
WC. If that property is already set in the repository copy, what
happens if you delete the local copy of the file and then update to
force a fresh copy to be created?
