Thanks for the reply.
I read that portion of the book but it just tells me what Ryan mentioned before although it isn't very clear that the setting is client side only.
The scenario I have is that I always want .sh files - any other files - to have the unix eol style but I never want to have to set them. svn should be smart enough or configurable enough to set this without any interaction from my or any other clients behalf.
So the question remains, is this feature on the roadmap? Why should everytime I want to add a new .sh file to the repository I need to manually set the eol:style to CR when the server could say "hey that's a .sh file I know what style he wants and just set it".
I realize that adding files doesn't occur all the time and that some client allow you to select a bunch of files and set all their eol:style at once but this is still error prone and much less nice than an automated server side setting.
Thanks,
Fu-Tung
