I'm not exactly sure what you're trying to accomplish. Subversion
sees all files as binary internally. If you're saying that you see
the file's contents when using a command like "svn diff", and you'd
rather see the message that it's a binary file, then all you need to
do is change its MIME type to something that doesn't start with
"text/". It's in the book:

svn.advanced.props.html#svn.advanced.props.special.mime-type
