No, it is not possible, nor is the possibility desired by the
Subversion developers, as I understand it. The job of a revision
control tool is to store the things it gets sent as-is, not to modify
them unexpectedly behind the committer's back.

I'm not aware of any such site. The documentation was clear to me,
but if you need more pointers, there have been many posts on this
list. You can probably find some of them by searching http://
