Users are expected to set the proper svn:mime-type on files they commit.

Users can set up autoprops to automate this.

You can install a pre-commit hook that blocks commits with incorrect or missing mime types.

If that's too much work for your users, you can install a post-commit hook that sets the correct properties and does a second commit.
