Cannot accept non-LF line endings in 'svn:ignore' property
Hi,
the full glory:
svn: E175008: Commit failed (details follow):
svn: E175008: At least one property change failed; repository is unchanged
svn: E175002: Error setting property 'ignore':
Cannot accept non-LF line endings in 'svn:ignore' property
For one it would really helpful to know which of the seventeen
svn:ignore properties is the culprit.
But the real strange thing: I did only do a merge; not actually
edit any properties myself.
Is that coming from doing the merge on unix while most other
commits (and all of the properties) are done on windows?
Or is svn 1.7.x (the client) more picky? (But it looks like
a server message.)
Even worse: There are only 0a (LF) line endings in the ignore properties.
No 0d (CR) in sight; at least in the output of 'svn pg svn:ignore'.
Using a 1.7 client on an 1.5.few server.

..and it's the same with an 1.6.6 client.

Yes, but they weren't modified (but moved with the tree) in the whole
branch lifetime on either trunk or the branch. And they both look good
(only printable chars and \n/0x0a in the properties, with --strict).
Unfortunately the problem has been resolved by throwing away the
properties. Also it happened not on the conflicted forward merge
into the branch, but on the --reintegrate backmerge, and I've had
thrown away the other sandboxes that refuse to commit in frustration.
(And this was one of those frustrating merges where you get just
a delete/edit conflict on src/com when the merge algorithm didn't
realize that src/com was actually moved to src/java/com and thus
fails to apply the changes in src/com there.)

You're right, someone had mercy, and it's 1.6.6.

It's probably an easy patch to libsvn_repos/fs-wrap.c.

Looking for 0x0a is the right thing, but you want 'propget --strict'.
