Are you sure it's not just hitting this first and failing before
trying to move on to the other tmp* files?

Wildcards only expand to things that the system can find. 'svn
delete' removed the working files from the working copy, so there's
nothing left there to be expanded. The same thing happens in Unix, by
the way.

Again, because they aren't present for the wildcard expansion syntax
to expand.

Hate to say it, but you seem to be -- about how wildcards work. :-)
