Files have to be stored in the repository correctly or you'll get this 
behavior.

I suspect you've somehow gotten files into the repository with Macintosh 
line endings and when you check them out with your GUI, it doubles the 
line endings.

This can happen easily using the command-line client on OS X.  When you 
do so, because the command-line client is a Unix program, it assumes 
that the native file format is Unix.  Since it's a Unix client going 
into a Unix repository, it performs no line feed conversion.  Therefore, 
if you added a file with Mac line endings (CR only), they'll get stored 
in the repository that way.

Make sure your development system and any text editors you use default 
to Unix line endings if you're going to use the command-line client at 
all.

There's no reason for that.  I use import all the time and it works.  
Are you sure your import command is correct?
