Don't use svn:eol-style=native for *nix shell scripts, use
svn:eol-style=LF instead. That way they'll always have LF line
endings, regardless of which platform/client is in use when they are
checked out. I would hope that anyone editing *nix shell scripts on
windows is competent enough to use an editor other than notepad.
