The relevant info is scattered all over the docs.  Bottom line is that svn
does line-end conversions if and only if the svn:eol-style property on a
file is set to a valid value (where "native" is what's wanted most often for
text files).  The text versus binary distinction also exists, but is
irrelevant to whether svn converts line ends; the t-vs-b distinction only
controls "whether a contextual merge is possible" ("Binary Files and
Translation" section of the CVS Appendix).
