Subject: Permissions in SVN folders and Ruby scripts

(I'm cross posting this from SVN forum)

Hello all-

I've recently started using Subversion at work to keep Ruby scripts.
The scripts are an automation framework I've been writing that have a 
harness in one directory and within a subdirectory, tests. However, I've 
noticed that my harness won't run as it can't execute the tests. I've 
diffed the files and the directories and there are no changes apart from 
some completely unrelated files in one directory structure.

I've thought it might be the permissions and indeed, looking at the SVN 
Tests directory I noticed that the permissions for both the EVERYONE and 
My account users are reduced compared to the non-SVN directory of same 
name.

If I want to execute the tests in the Subversion enabled directory, and 
need to change any permissions (to be more permissive) are there any 
risks for Subversion functionality?

(I'm presuming here that when a Ruby script is executed that it either 
uses the permissions available to myself or EVERYONE?)
