It is, in a way (depends on how you read it I guess):
"Subversion uses the ignore patterns to determine which files should
not be swept into the version control system as part of a larger
recursive addition or import operation."

svn add . svn import, etc. are recursive addition/import operations.
svn add * is not, it's explicitly adding individual items.

Note that not all shells do this expansion. Certainly most do, but not all.
