See, this is the thing I don't understand. Don't set a mime-type on
your XML or DTD documents, and Subversion will assume they are text and
let you merge/blame/etc to your heart's content. If you do want/need to
set the MIME type for some reason, just use 'text/xml' and Subversion
will be happy to treat the files as text. No one needs to know that the
MIME type from Subversion's standpoint isn't "precisely accurate".
