I checked out my SVN codebase from a Linux box this morning and I realized that I’ve been committing everything with ^M line endings.

I absolutely hate when others do that, so I had to take immediate steps to remedy the issue. Following directions, lifted from Celtix ESB Wiki made sure that I won’t be guilty of this offense in the near future.

TortoiseSVN settings fix:

In the Windows explorer, highlight any directory and right click. Select the TortoiseSVN > Settings menu item; this opens the TortoiseSVN Settings window.

Highlight the General entry in the left-hand listing and click on the Edit command button adjacent to the Subversion configuration file: label.

Under the miscellany tag, uncomment the last line, which turns on the auto properties functionality.

### Set enable-auto-props to ‘yes’ to enable automatic properties
### for ’svn add’ and ’svn import’, it defaults to ‘no’.
### Automatic properties are defined in the section ‘auto-props’.
enable-auto-props = yes

At the end of the file under the auto_props tag, add the following properties, then save the file and close the TortoiseSVN Settings window.
