I don't think simply ignoring this and allowing the add to continue is a
good enough solution.
Just passing the skip checks flags will allow adding many wrong properties
which will cause a lot of grief later, and I would guess adding the file
would just delay the error until we try to commit this file.
But looking at this from the AnkhSVN side, I would like to have some api to
make the eols on files consistent... Would this work for you?
