These are conflict markers. svn creates them if you update a file with local modifications and the update touches the same parts where the modifications are. You have to resolve them by hand (delete the <<<<<<<, ======= and >>>>>>> lines and choose whatever is appropriate from the lines inbetween. My observations are that svn is not as good as cvs in conflict resolving, i.e. I get more often something like <<<<<<< .mine bla ======= bla >>>>>>> .r13225 which obviously is not really a conflict, but rather a change that was already in my local copy.
