Hello Marc

Sorry to bother you again, but can I process with the "svn:eol-style"
property?

The reason is that I would like to merge the branches. But if we do not
fix "svn:eol-style" before and if the files are not identical on all
branches, then the next merge may report lot of spurious conflicts
because Subversion may think that every lines have changed (if the EOL
style is not the same between different branches, for example because
they have been edited by developers on different platforms).

Also just in case you have the opportunity (but this is only a plus), if
you have the opportunity to move the files before the merge, that would
reduce the risk. But this is okay if you prefer not.
