If you create a new Portfile, you should set svn:eol-style to native on it (`svn propset svn:eol-style native Portfile`).
If you add any patches to the repository, don't set any properties on them.
If you add files which aren't patches or Portfiles..
is the file a binary file? if yes, set svn:mime-type to application/octet-stream if no, do the line endings matter? if they don't, set svn:eol-style to native
If you don't want to worry about properties, it's not a big deal if you set none of them, but if possible I'd like the repository to be consistent about this.
If you want extra reading material about properties, try <[ http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.1/ch07s02.html ]http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.1/ch07s02.html>.
Ok, I see. Thanks for stating it very clearly. I'll see if I can add this to the Wiki. Mark
