My svnsync mirroring of our repository is erroring out because some of our
old log messages have non-LF-style line endings.  These propchanges you see
are just line-ending corrections.

FWIW, similar considerations apply to the "FS doesn't accept non-UTF-8
filenames any more" fix (r33148), except that fixing the source repository
is harder (since the history has to be changed).

I imagine that *somebody* has write access to most source repo's, though, in
which case it would be a good idea for the readers of that repository to
complain loudly about their invalid log message so they can fix the problem.

I had the same problem last week, and wondered if we shouldn't make
svnsync raise a warning, but just put a 'fixed' log message in the
destination repository. Not everyone using svnsync has write access to
the source repo.
