There is an FAQ that is related to this:

http://subclipse.tigris.org/wiki/PluginFAQ#head-73584410a8d4fbad6781c7b16be39f6518410a61

This error happens when something removes your .svn folder(s). Based
on this being the "debug" folder and for a .exe I would guess that
some build process is doing it. Which is probably the most common
case. The build process is no SVN-aware and it clears the output
folder before building. This removes the .svn folders.

I'd usually recommend just not including these folders in your
repository as it is unlikely you are going to be able to "fix" the
build process.
