  • DbVisualizer auto commit problem
    • ]]>     If you get this error message “svn: Inconsistent line ending style” when trying to commit a binary file into your SVN repository then Subversion probably thinks that your file is a text file.

    First verify your file with:

    svn proplist <your-file>

    If the result contains svn:eol-style but you know that your file is a binary file then you have a problem where Subversion thinks the file is a text file even though it’s not. We fix this by first deleting the erroneous properties and then adding the ones we want.

    svn propdel svn:eol-style <your-file>
    svn propset svn:mime-type application/octet-stream <your-file>

    Verify your file again with the command below

    svn proplist <your-file>

    If everything worked it should say svn:mime-type
