It may or may not be exactly what you want, but I wrote a script a few
months ago that automatically sets properties as listed in the
auto-props section of your config file. It's useful if you have checked
in a bunch of files without using auto-props, and want to set properties
as if you had used auto-props. It also detects inconsistent newlines
and can try to fix them (that may only work on Linux, I haven't had time
to test it on Windows). In your case, maybe you could simply turn off
auto-props, import your files, then run this script.
The latest version of the script lives here:
http://svn.pietdepsi.com/repos/projects/svn-tools/set-props.pl
I also posted a version to the dev@ mailing list here:
http://svn.haxx.se/dev/archive-2004-07/0866.shtml
and Ben Reser said he would commit it here:
http://svn.haxx.se/dev/archive-2004-09/0038.shtml
but it was probably simply forgotten. I hope you find it useful!
