If the database.php file needs to be versioned (present in the repository), then the solution you want isn't to ignore the file, because it has a different meaning to Subversion, and hence Versions. Various SVN clients have their own means to allow you to items you don't want to commit from the commit dialog, but Versions doesn't. YET. (Right devs? ;-)
The simplest way to avoid checking in the local-only changes is to command-click the files/folders to commit one-by-one. Essentially, you have to manually ignore the file. I (and other users) have asked for an enhancement to the commit dialog to add checkboxes or at least the ability to remove particular items. My personal opinion is that having an ignore list within the app (and separate from Subversion) would be detrimental to understanding, particularly because I frequently switch between Versions, Terminal and Xcode when interacting with my repository.
