According to aroben:

"""WebKit's .gitattributes file contains the following:

*.vcproj eol=crlf
*.vsprops eol=crlf
*.sln eol=crlf

This tells git, "When storing this file in the repository, convert all
line endings to LF. When checking out this file to disk, convert all
line endings to CRLF."

If the committed version of the file in the repository contains CRLF
line endings, git will show a diff that converts the CRLF line endings
to LF. eol=crlf means that the line endings *in the repository* should
be LF, so git is trying to fix it.

I think the thing to do is to set svn:eol-style to "native" for all
.vcproj, .vsprops, and .sln files. That way Subversion will commit the
files using LF line endings (like git wants), and check them out using
CRLF on Windows (like Visual Studio wants)."""

This feels weird to me if you use svn on Windows, you'll get the files with LFs.
