I'm checking out files that have Linux style line endings (just LF char). When I check out a file with TortoiseSVN in Windows, it converts the line endings to Windows style (CR+LF). I've tried adding the lines to the subversion config file to force it to use LF, and yes, I did set the enable-auto-props = yes. This doesn't work, and even if it did, it's not exactly what I want, because I'd rather have TSVN simply not touch the files. Just copy them as is.
As others have pointed out, you need to set the svn:eol-style
property. This property can have three values:
LF
: Set end-of-lines automatically to Unix line endings upon checkout and commit.CRLF
: Set end-of-lines automatically to Windows line endings upon checkout and commit.native
: This will store line endings upon commit to Unix line endings (LF
), but will checkout the line endings with eitherLF
orCRLF
based upon the client.
You can set the auto-props
settings in your $HOME/.subversion/config file to automatically attach this property to all new files. However, this is something each user must set in their Subversion client. To enforce setting this property, you can use my pre-commit hook which will reject commits if the files you've specified don't have the properties you've specified set to their correct values.
This is a crude bludgeon since it won't correct the problem, but after one or two failed commits, developers will quickly set their auto-props up to automatically add the needed properties.
For TortoiseSVN on Windows, find the config file under your username/AppData (a hidden folder). E.g.
%appdata%\roaming\subversion\config
Add these lines (probably already there, but commented out), then logout/in:
enable-auto-props = yes
# Add these for each text file type that you use:
*.txt = svn:eol-style=native
*.cs = svn:eol-style=native
*.xml = svn:eol-style=native
(Example is for C# with XML; replace with whatever text files you use.)
%appdata%
already denotes the Roaming
folder, that level of the path should be left out. –
Inanimate You should set svn:eol-style property.

The auto-props configuration setting only works for new files, not for existing files. For those you have to set the svn:eol-style
property for each file.
As of Tortoise SVN version 1.12.0, Build 28568, 2019/04/16, you can assign AS-IS EOL properties to an entire folder.
Select Workspace : Right-click : TortoiseSVN -> : Properties
Select New : EOL
Choose As is (no specific EOL)

svn:eol-style
: as A.H. points out in their answer, for existing files, this must be done for each file. That is, there is no "global" setting that will automatically change this for all EXISTING repository files. Instead, each file must have that property applied, then do a commit of all those files. See bahrep's answer for links. – Enlighten
