It is off by default. To turn it on for, say, all .txt files, you add
this to your client's Subversion config file:
*.txt = svn:eol-style=native
So, if you want Subversion to not automatically add that property to
those files, simply remove that line from your config file again.

Automatic properties are a client-side setting only.
You can write a pre-commit hook for your repository which prevents
commits which do not meet your requirements. For example, for one
repository, you can require that all .txt files have this property
set, and for another repository, you can require that it not be set,
if that's what you want. Committers are responsible for adding or not
adding the property, as needed.
If you look at "svn help commit" you'll see a "--config-dir"
argument. Users can set up a config directory per repository, and
whenever they commit to a particular repository, they can use the --
config-dir argument to specify the config dir for that repository.
That way they can set up different auto-props rules for different
repositories. I admit that's not as convenient as Subversion
automatically knowing what rules to use for what repository, but it
is the only thing Subversion offers at this point.
