Sure, that works. A couple of points:

 * you don't need to worry about committing object files. did you
   explicitly schedule them for addition using 'svn add'? If not,
   they won't be committed. They're just ignored, unversioned files.

 * most people tend to run 'svn update' before committing, to make
   sure they don't receive any conflicting changes from other people.
   They also tend to run 'svn status' to make sure they're committing
   the list of changes they want. :-)
