Just in case you were not aware, Something has broken svn in the latest 
snapshot. (Actually at least the two most recent snapshots have this 
problem).

Here is the error: "svn: Can't move '.svn/tmp/entries' to '.svn/entries': 
Permission denied"


LS output:
$ ls -al .svn

If I were to take a guess, i'm thinking it the "-r--r--r--" permission on 
.svn/entries that is causing the problem.
Something probably changed in the permissions handling, causing the 
breakage.
