[webkit-dev] A tip for committers

Adam Roben Thu, 03 Mar 2011 06:47:35 -0800

All committers are encouraged to follow the instructions I just added to 
<http://trac.webkit.org/wiki/CommitterTips#Walkingyouthroughyourfirstcommit>:


> Subversion has a handy feature called auto-props that will ensure that new 
> binary files you add to the repository are given the correct MIME type. To 
> set this up, find the following two lines in ~/.subversion/config and 
> uncomment them:
> 
> enable-auto-props = yes
> 
> *.png = svn:mime-type=image/png
> 
> Note that this will work even if you use git-svn to commit changes to WebKit.

This will prevent your webkit-changes emails from being filled with 
gobbledy-gook like this:

(My hat is off to those brave souls who keep the bots green by rebaselining 
tests. My hat will be even more off to you if you follow this tip!)
