RE: Blame on .csv and .sql files ( files which SVN thinks are binary )

Thanks for your relpy.

I opened up cmd.exe and the results are below.

> svn proplist -v yourfile.sql
Properties on 'yourfile.sql':
  svn:mime-type : text/plain

>svn blame yourfile.sql
Skipping binary file: 'yourfile.sql'

Best regards,

Ian

Please show us the output of these two commands:

svn proplist -v yourfile.sql

svn blame yourfile.sql

Of course TortoiseSVN should work but I have never used it so I
cannot provide any information. When in doubt, use the command line
client, which everyone on this list probably knows how to use and
help you with.
