subst.c' line 724: assertion failed (STRING_IS_EOL(newline_buf, newline_len))

Hello everyone,

I must have triggered an ASSERT in tortoisesvn, when checkin in a certain file, I get a messagebox with the advice to send this information to the mailing list:

---------------------------
Subversion Exception!
---------------------------
Subversion encountered a serious problem.
Please take the time to report this on the Subversion mailing list
with as much information as possible about what
you were trying to do.
But please first search the mailing list archives for the error message
to avoid reporting the same problem repeatedly.
You can find the mailing list archives at

Subversion reported the following

In file
 'D:\Development\SVN\Releases\TortoiseSVN-1.14.1\ext\subversion\subversion\libsvn_subr\subst.c'
 line 724: assertion failed (STRING_IS_EOL(newline_buf, newline_len))
---------------------------
OK

I first encountered this with version 1.10.5.28651 and then upgraded to 1.14.1.29085, but the problem persists. Whom can I send to the old revision of the file and the one I tried to check in?

Thanks in advance,

Just in case that matters: on the svn server, version 1.9.7 (r1800392) is running, at least this is what an 'svn --version' tells me.

I just found out, that the same message occurs if I try to check in this file from my Mac, so it probably is a general problem of svn, not a specific problem of TortoiseSVN.

So I found out, that the new revision to be checked in had a mix of CRLF and LF linefeeds, just in case this happens to anyone else

I faced the same error using TSVN 1.14.3 and the solution was the same: uniformize the line endings in all file lines.

Thank you!
