* SUMMARY When applying (or unapplying) a patch, svn-apply and svn-unapply will remove all "native" line endings from a patch, and replace then with "\n". This causes problems when a patch contains more than one type of line ending (such as changes to a *.vcproj file and a *.pbxproj file in the same patch). * STEPS TO REPRODUCE 0. On a Mac OS X system. 1. Make changes to *.pbxproj and *.vcproj files. 2. Use svn-create-patch to create a patch of the changes. 3. Use svn-unapply to revert the changes using the patch file. 3a. Alternatively, use svn revert to back out the changes, then use svn-apply with the patch file. * RESULTS The svn-unapply or svn-apply operation will fail because the "native" line endings in the patch are currently stripped by the scripts. * NOTES Instead, both scripts should preserve the line endings for each patch, since the patch(1) command knows how to deal with them anyway.
