That won't cause corruption, unless you've set 'svn:eol-style' or
'svn:keywords' properties on the file. If you haven't done those
things, then svn will *never* change the contents of files. Unlike
CVS, svn assumes that all file contents are opaque strings of bytes.

So... you'll need to come up with a new hypothesis. And more details.
