Multiline values in Subversions autoproperties possible?

Question

Is it possible to create a property in the autoprops section of .subversion/config file which contains multiline values?

So that it would look like:

svn pg myprop

will output

1st line of prop
2nd line of prop

Answer 1

No, it doesn't appear so.

In fact it's not even possible to include ";" in a autoprop value, though that's expected to change with Subversion 1.7:

The semi-colon problem is irritating for svn:mime-type properties:

*.html = svn:mime-type=text/html;charset=utf-8

Whoops.

Sometimes formats like .subversion/config provide some kind of line continuation:

foo = blah blah blah
  blah blah
  blah blah

or 

foo = blah blah blah \
blah blah blah \
blah blah

But, Subversion itself doesn't seem to follow such conventions. They wouldn't help you anyway, since this ability to break lines just makes it possible to span one logical line across multiple physical lines. The value of the foo property will not contain any line breaks once the file has been parsed.
