File corruption
Hi
I found that "xdocs/Sensis_Classifieds_J2EE_Framework.doc" on my branch
was corrupted.
Since I had changed the Meta data on this file on the branch I wanted to
merge it back to the trunk (Don't worry JUST testing).
In step 0 I listed the file.
In step 1 I ran a dry-run.
In step 2 I ran the merge.
In step 3 I listed the file.
In step 4 I commit the file to trunk
In step 5 I listed the file again.
The strange behaviour is that the file size changed between step 3 and
step 5 and that file is now corrupted.
Why did the file size change after a commit. I would have expected it to
change after the merge...!!
Can anyone please shed some light on this problem. Thanking you in
advance.

Perhaps you have set the svn:eol-style property on this file, and
Subversion dutifully converted the newlines for you. Since this is a
binary file, not a text file, this obviously corrupts the file.
Therefore you should not set the svn:eol-style property on binary
files. Perhaps you have an auto-props rule that sets svn:eol-style
indiscriminately on all kinds of files? If so, you should change your
auto-props to only set the property on files you know to be plain text.
