I don't think you can achieve anything different here. As long as svn:eol-style is set correctly, and svn diff is used to create patches then it should work fine regardless. I believe SVN will checkout sa CRLF on Windows and LF on unix. I've certainly never had this problem applying patches.
What were the specific circumstances that led to this? Was a file missing the eol-style property? - Brett On 12/3/05, Trustin Lee <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi all, > > I'm using UNIX text file format, but I found some patches are in DOS text > file format, which has an extra '\r' in a line.
