In the subversion configuration file ~/.subversion/config , you can set some global-ignores to a set of whitespace-delimited globs which Subversion will ignore in its 'status' output, and while importing or adding files and directories.

Mine was:
global-ignores = ._* *.log *.html-gzip-* ruby_sess.* *.rej .DS_Store schema.rb

It happens that the Rails framework has a file called vendor/rails/activerecord/lib/active_record/schema.rb ...

OOOPS! This file was not committed which broke the script/console ...

Better removing 'schema.rb' from my global-ignores!

Also worth checking the /etc/subversion/config file
