Brian,

If you plan on storing the key in a file, I would suggest using the
svn:ignore feature:
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.5/svn-book.html#svn.advanced.props.special.ignore

You can tell svn to not check in any file that matches your private
filename.  Just let your collaborators know they're supposed to add
their version of the private file after svn checkout.
