I've not tried your script. But:

That's not how to do what you want to do. Instead, you should:

        svn co --non-recursive $(REPOS_PATH) $(TMP_PATH)
        svn up --non-recursive $(TMP_PATH)/proj
        svn up --non-recursive $(TMP_PATH)/proj/branches
        svn up --ignore-externals $(TMP_PATH)/proj/trunk

Maybe that will help you.
