If I check out a file via SVN and change the permissions and/or owner of the file in my working directory, will those changes be reflected when I commit the file?

If so, how can I prevent this?

If you just change permissions or ownership nothing will happen on commit. Svn only detects changes to svn properties or data. There are some special properties which allow some minimal control. But you want to avoid any impact if I understood, so having no impact from local permissions changes is working out of the box...
