I had a similar problem.
It started when I switched to tortoise 1.4.99.xxxx which is compiled against svn 1.5.
I was using a WinXP workstation and my repo was on a samba mounted filesystem.

The main difference is that i was not loading, but just committing.

The strangest thing on it was that I received that error message ("Can't remove
...\db\transactions\####-1.txn': Directory not empty") but the commit actually was successful.

My working copy got on a out-of-date state and all I had to do is update it.
It means that *a correct commit returned an error* which, in my opinion, IS A BUG!

People said me (on this list) to use a proper server (svnserve or apache) and not file:/// over a mounted filesystem.
I just quitted using repos over samba but i still use a repo on a mounted filesystem, but now, on a "only windows" mounted filesystem, and it
works fine for me!

My complaint was not about something I couldn't do but about a *mistaken error message*. Doesn’t it seem a bug to you?
