Re: [Issue 1441] cvs2svn.py should handle .cvsignore files

In order to avoid problems with non-ascii characters a quick question:

Does Subversion expect the contents of svn:ignore to be UTF-8 encoded?

I'll be doing some testing this night too, but I would like to know what is expected
from someone knowledgeable.

If svn:ignore should be UTF-8 encoded, there is an encoding problem in the attached patch,
although it looks like a good start.

bye,

Erik.

Based on the docs for svn_client_propset I'd say yes:

If propname is an svn-controlled property (i.e. prefixed with
SVN_PROP_PREFIX), then the caller is responsible for ensuring that the
value UTF8-encoded and uses LF line-endings.
