I wonder if File::Copy allows some sort of "hook" so that we can process each "chunk" on the fly to do this conversion? Otherwise it may be necessary to create an intermediate file in order to perform the conversion prior to the final copy to the dumpfile...
Hello Toby,

this is where my PERL knowledge completely stops. At this point I would start an external converter to do the job ;-). As far as I have seen this copy patch, but wouldn't be a block read and block write perform a similar functionality? Somewehere I read, that you can set filters on streams in PERL. So wouldn't be a chuncked implementation of the copy with a CR+LF input stream and a LF output stream also do the job?
A quick galnce into the doucmentation: http://perldoc.perl.org/File/Copy.html

*Note that passing in files as handles instead of names may lead to loss of information on some operating systems; it is recommended that you use file names whenever possible.* Files are opened in binary mode where applicable. To get a consistent behaviour when copying from a filehandle to a file, use |binmode <http://perldoc.perl.org/functions/binmode.html>| on the filehandle.

So wouldn't something like:

   if(!defined $text && defined $file) {
       if ($node->get_prop('svn:mime-type') == 'application/octet-stream');
          open ($input, "<:crlf", $file)
       } else {
          open ($input, "<", $file);
          binmode ($input);
       }
copy($input, $fh);
       print $fh "\n";
   }
