"svnadmin dump" produces pretty munchable text file to pretend that there were no tabs at all. The problem may be to sync working copies with old new repository. http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.5/svn.ref.svnadmin.c.dump.html svn pre-commit hook can be used to avoid any unescaped tabs in future commits. http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.5/svn.ref.reposhooks.pre-commit.html Adding pre-commit hook is better than adding editor-specific comments, because it doesn't require your editor to support the syntax - regardless of editor you will have to convert tabs file to spaces anyway. -- --anatoly t.
