Here's another alternative: Create a post-commit hook that updates a
working copy on the subversion server, pretty prints your source files,
and commits it. This will obviously result in two commits (developer and
post-commit hook) and the committer will need to update his working
copy. If it solves your problem it might be worth the inconveniences.

Although I would do this as part om my development or build environment
as other people suggested, this is an example of the flexibility of
subversion (and foresight of its developers). You just gotta love it :-)
