The subversion properties of the files are inconsistent in the repository (mainly eol-style)

[Ari Jolma]

Subversion maintains properties and values for them for files in the repository. This can be used to define the end-of-line style for example. The svn:eol-style should probably be "native" for all text files(? this is a policy issue but I haven't checked the policy nor in fact don't know where the policy is stored). Some files have eol-style set to native but some are missing it, which leads to such files usually stored as LF in local (also windows) copies. For example gcore/gdal_rpcimdio.cpp does not have eol-style defined - there may be others, I haven't checked all.

So is there something to fix? If there is something to fix, name a person or two who could do the change.

This is discussed and solutions presented for example here:

IMO we should use RDC and manual fixes.
