svn:eol-style=native for non binary sources in codebase

[Mathias Brökelmann <mb...@googlemail.com>]

I noticed that a lot of source files don't have the svn property
svn:eol-style=native set (at least in 1.2 core). Apache suggests to
use it - see http://www.apache.org/dev/version-control.html for more
info.

I'm currently not sure if it is wise to change it now so that every
non binary file has this svn property. Because all affected files will
get changed on every line.

Cheers
Mathias

I changed it for myfaces 1.2 core branch - with the expected
results... Although it looks like everything has changed. In Fact
r518967 changed not a single line of code.

Please every commiter must check its subversion config for autoprops
according to the settings defined here:
http://www.apache.org/dev/svn-eol-style.txt

Thanks,
Mathias

Its wise.

Its possible to break these up into two categories based on the
observed line endings and use an appropriate box for each set to
minimize the diffs. Easier to call out commits in the first place.
