Yes, you would need to "svn add" them if you want them to go into the
repository.

You can search for items whose status is "?" by piping the output of
"svn st" to any of the text processing tools at your disposal
provided by your operating system, such as grep, sed or awk on Unix-
like operating systems, e.g.

svn st | awk '/^?/ {print $2}'
