You need the recursive flag

svn revert -R .

Your command will only revert things on the folder, e.g. svn-property changes, not on files or folders below.

You could also DELETE the changed file, then do an UPDATE from anyplace above it on the folder tree.

SVN "updates" missing files by putting them back!
