You've probably just set your exclude/ignore list wrong. When doing an
add (and some other operations), Subversion uses relative paths
internally, starting from the folder you started the command. Now your
ignore-patterns are matched against those relative paths, not individual
files anymore.

Example:

*.tmp

will successfully ignore temp files for most operations. But not for Add
if those files are in a subfolder. In that case, you also must ignore

*\*.tmp
