Indeed, it appears to be a problem with Tortoise. Here is the result of
a file checked out using TortoiseSVN and one using the Subversion
Windows command line tool:
Mac: MD5 (index.html) = 45f0f1bc8e0571a025e225dea7f7c353
Win cmd line: MD5 (index-cmd.html) = 45f0f1bc8e0571a025e225dea7f7c353
Win Tortoise: MD5 (index-win.html) = 5384838ac87ceae69925eae16d9e6a7d
Thanks to everyone for your help. Is this a TortoiseSVN configuration
issue or a Windows configuration issue???
