Possibly. But... I shouldn't have to configure that for my svn client,
should I? Isn't that supposed to be done on the repo end?

Not sure what you mean here. You mean the mount options? Not sure what
they are, I'm on a different computer right now.

Hmm. Well, I would hope that "svn co <URL> ." just gets whatever happens
to be in the repo - LF, CRLF, whatever - and doesn't feck with them just
because they are not the line endings some program someone might want to
sometime use, expects. Is that not the case?

I should probably mention that I've been happily using the same Cygwin
svn for about a year (including some binary files such as images) and
never had a problem. Only now, with this stupid new project/repository.
