Mixed workspaces in windows and *nix

Hello,

it is posible to create an subversion workspace in solaris, to transport
to a windows SO, and working with it here? For example:

$ uname
$ SunOs
$ svn co http://svnrepos myWorkSpace.svn
$ zip -r myWorkSpace.svn.zip myWorkSpace.svn

$ ( transport myWorkSpace.svn.zip to a windows machine and unzip, and
attach myWorkSpace.svn to a Tortoise SVN client).

Best regards

...with the exception of symlinks.

Workspaces itself platform-independent without an exception.
eol-style will be an issue only when you start committing your files to
repository.
If, say, you CO your files with EOL=LF, and your editor change them all to
CRLF then, even if you didn't changed any meaningful line in file, the file
itself will be considered modified just in case of these added CR's.

Thanks a lot for your reply. The svn:eol-style issue is not a problem
for me. I am only concerned with the internal structure of .svn
directories, as I am not sure if they are platform independent. It
the answer is "yes", workspaces are platform independent, except for
the svn:eol-style issue.

Regards

It can be done, but if you have set svn:eol-style to native on any  
files, they will be native to whatever platform you checked out on,  
and will be wrong if you transport the working copy to an OS that  
uses different line endings.

Possible? Yes.

Recommended? No.

Why not just check out on Windows?
