It's more interesting to look with `svn stat' if your copy has cached some
local modifications or blocking conflicts from local editing.

Tip:
running from time to time the command `svn cleanup' should prevent this issue.

Nice side effect from `svn cleanup'

> du -h -d1 /usr/ports/.svn/
619M    /usr/ports/.svn/pristine
2.0k    /usr/ports/.svn/tmp
695M    /usr/ports/.svn/

> find /usr/ports/.svn/ -type f | wc -l

430M    /usr/ports/.svn/pristine
2.0k    /usr/ports/.svn/tmp
506M    /usr/ports/.svn/

> find /usr/ports/.svn/ -type f | wc -l

PS:
If you even want to get back some more space try the command
> sqlite3 .svn/wc.db "vacuum"
