Well, does the directory .svn/tmp actually exist or not? It is
necessary, and if it's missing, then the working copy is broken and
you could check it out again. Alternatively, if the tmp directoyr is
all that's missing, you could just try recreating it. Perhaps there
is some weird process on your machine that's periodically deleting
directories called tmp? Or maybe such a process ran specifically on
this working copy?
