As wcoenen and Dave Markle said, you have an old version that doesn't have the --keep-local option. To be more specific, this option was introduced in version 1.5.

As a workaround:

1. Copy the files out of your working copy
2. svn delete
3. svn commit
4. Copy them back into the working copy
5. Add them to svn:ignore so they don't get checked in again!
