svn revert --recursive mydata/*/*.txt

    On a POSIX-compatible OS (Linux/Mac/Cygwin):

    find mydata -mindepth 2 -name \*.txt | xargs svn revert

    On Windows (use %%G in a batch file, %G on the command line):

    FOR /R mydata %G IN (*.txt) DO svn revert "%G"

    Strictly speaking, the Windows command will affect mydata/*.txt, mydata/*/*.txt, mydata/*/*/*.txt, and so on, so maybe it’s not exactly what you’re looking for… but maybe it’s enough to get you there.
