You're mixing client versions to access your working copy: a 1.4
client may write the 'upgrade-format' command to your working copy.
Only 1.3 or earlier clients don't know what to do with it.

So, you got your WC in this state with a 1.4+ client and it looks like
you're trying to get out of the situation using an older client.

To resolve the issue, try running 'svn cleanup' using a 1.4 client.

There's a bit of a weird thing though: your log contains an awful lot
of 'rm' commands yet it doesn't look like a log which may have
resulted from a commit operation. What are you trying to do?

bye,

Erik.
