 svn:mime-type on pre-commit is lame, and I'd rather not write a bot for
 it. Systems might have another idea but I doubt it.

 Why is it lame to force it on pre-commit? For a select set of filetypes, I
 don't see it as a bad thing.

 > I don’t know much about SVN, so just for clarification: Can the plugin
 author set the proper MIME type in her/his own repository per SVN? In that
 case, a short how-to on the [http://wordpress.org/plugins/about/svn/
 developer SVN page] would be helpful.

 Should be able to, yes.

 This command should do it:


 {{{
 svn propset svn:mime-type image/png *.png
 svn propset svn:mime-type image/jpeg *.jpg
 }}}

 Alternatively, plugin authors can set this in their ~/.subversion/config
 file:

 {{{
 *.png = svn:mime-type=image/png
 *.jpg = svn:mime-type=image/jpeg
 }}}

 That'll apply to only new files though. Fixing already-committed files
 will require the command above.
