I don't know the internals of Subversion so I can only
guess: .svn/text-base/org.eclipse.core.resources.prefs.svn-base is used to
find out if org.eclipse.core.resources.prefs changed - so yes in this case
the original version should be available in the repository.

Another option would be a command which recreates all the .svn files.

For my problem the perfect solution would different: Keep the .svn/* files in
a separate directory tree - then I would only copy the workfiles around and
the .svn/* would not get corrupted in the first place.

Speaking of it ... maybe some rsync --exclude magic could do the trick as
well...
