Neither. This is a Windows ACL issue.

Change the Security settings for the directory (or directories) in which
your working copy is stored. More specifically, it sounds as though you
need to enable permission inheritance thereon.

We can't give you more explicit instructions without knowing at what
location on the filesystem your working copy is stored, and as which
user you are executing TortoiseSVN. (And frankly, this topic is outside
the scope of this mailing list.)

The bottom line seems to be that when files are modified/added within
your working copy, their permissions are changed. You need to configure
the ACL on the relevant container (folder) such that files within said
container inherit permissions, as appropriate, from the parent container.

Good luck!
