I noticed that a lot of files in qpid don't have any svn properties set on 
them so they end up with mixed cr/lf issues, wrong mime types when 
browsing, etc....   That's probably not a good thing. 

I've attached a little bash shell script that I use to fix up issues like 
that in a bunch of SVN repositories.   It runs on Linux (maybe on Mac as 
well, GNU xargs required) and will reset all the properties for the types 
I've been exposed to.   Someone should propable run it on trunk to get 
things into a good consistent state and then start from there.

QPID should also define a definite set of auto props that developers 
should be using.   A good starting point may be the CXF ones at:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/cxf/trunk/etc/svn-auto-props
they should cover MOST of the stuff encountered.   Not sure about the 
ruby/python stuff.
