To be thorough, it's always good to include as much detail as possible.

What versions of SVN, TSVN, and Windows (+SP or other relevant info) are you
using?

What SVN protocol are you using (file://, svn://, http://)? If file:// or
svn:// you'll need to look at who owns the repository files. For svn://
you'll need that also, plus the user the svnserve process runs as.

Are positive that you both checked out from the _same_ repository? (Not a
copy or anything.)

Can you reproduce this behavior? If so, making a script (batch file) that
demonstrates it would be helpful.
