It couldn't apply the diff.

The problem is that the diff code tries to accommodate both LF and
CRLF line endings and treat them the same.  In fact, there is still
code to this effect in diff_atomize_text.c, but I haven't looked
further.

Subversion is intended to also run on Windows, where CRLF is the
native format.  I don't think that's a goal for Got.
