Not sure if this is what you want and is the best way of doing: supposing you
can run scripts (like shell scripts) you can traverse your tree examinating
each file and making an add only of those that interest you. For instance in
bash something like this:

#!/bin/bash
# invoke with the tree root
cd $1

for f in *
do
   if [ -f $f ]
   then
    case $f in
      *.h | *.c | *.m) svn add $f;;
      *) ;;
     esac
    else
    if [-d $f]
    then
         $0 $f
    fi
done

Hopes this help.
