The default Subversion config file installed by the Subversion client
should provide sufficient examples. But here's what you need:

In the section [miscellany], make sure it includes "enable-auto-props
= yes"

Then, in the section [auto-props], add these lines:

*.cpp = svn:eol-style=native

As the comments in the config file say:

### The format of the entries is:
### file-name-pattern = propname[=value][;propname[=value]...]
### The file-name-pattern can contain wildcards (such as '*' and
### '?'). All entries which match will be applied to the file.
### Note that auto-props functionality must be enabled, which
### is typically done by setting the 'enable-auto-props' option.
