You tell us. Subversion is not supposed to delete unversioned not-yet-
committed files at all, unless you tell it you really want it to by
using the --force option. What command did you issue?

I don't think it matters how the file was deleted. Any file recovery
program for your OS should work as well as such programs can work.
They will be more likely to help you if you haven't gone writing a
whole lot of other files to the hard drive since the accidental
deletion.
