'svn commit -N .' only affects the '.' directory itself, i.e. "depth
0". At the moment, there's no way to specify "just immediate
children" (depth 1). However, Karl Fogel is working on a new feature
that makes the working copy aware of certain depths, so perhaps
someday 'svn commit' can take --depth arguments.

Use quotation marks: svn commit "file with space.txt"
