The way "newly added" files are supposed to get the svn:eol-style property is that the machines where you do your svn commit from, are supposed to have SVN configured to do this; see http://uima.apache.org/one-time-setup.html#svn-setup
The source-release.zip, having been built (I believe) on a linux machine, you might think ought to have just the unix-style line endings. I checked, and found a few files here that have windows style. Some of these are generated: issues-fixed... but others seem to be checked in with windows line endings and no eol-style property; some examples: org.apache.uima.ducc.agent.launcher.CGroupsManager.java ...common.agent.metrics.swap. (4 java files) -Marshall
