we've had experience with cvs which will always convert line-endings.
We do not want subversion to mess with the line-endings.

We have standardized on windows line-endings because we found out that
windows editors are very picky. So we took the easy way out for windows
users and made it a bit more difficult for the linux users (Which fits
nicely). But now we have an issue with the line-endings and I have not a
good feeling that it will be solved because a bug report was created in
2003.
