You asked about  "svn on the command line", nobody mentioned Tortoise
(which isn't a Cygwin program anyway).

Try this: http://www.latenightpc.com/pictures/view/screenshots/tortoise-svn-executable-property.png.html

You can also try to put the following in ~/.subversion/config (note: not tested)

[auto-props]
*.exe = svn:executable=*

After this, all newly added exe files should automagically have the
svn:executable property.
