Re: svn co with a specific EOL - how?

We don't have this feature.  You could set the svn:eol-style property
to "LF", though that would affect the files for everyone.  Or get a
Unix editor that can handle both ways?  (Some can, such as recent
versions of Emacs.)

I'd narrow this further: call the option --with-native-eol, and make it 
affect _only_ the files with svn:eol-style = native. Long option only, 
of course.

+0 for the more limited feature, with the above restrictions.

It solves your first case: your Unix editor will load the file from
the Samba share, transparently DTRT with respect to the line endings,
and preserve the original eol style when you save.

It would be complex to implement.  I guess I'm -0, but if others need
this, we could file a Post-1.0 Enhancement issue.

For your second case:

Well, hmmm, a --with-eol argument only for "svn export" would be much
easier to implement (since no working copy has to remember the
setting), and would solve that scenario.

Want to file a feature request for that somewhat more limited feature?

Using a good editor does not help in the cases I outlined.
Should I raise this as an issue for later attention?
