Since your using linux does it work if you use single quotes instead of
double quotes for the file names? What shell are you using?

OK, here is a command line script:

mkdir aa
svn import aa https://extranet.regio.ee/svn/repos/sandbox/jaanv/aa -m
"Created aa"
svn checkout https://extranet.regio.ee/svn/repos/sandbox/jaanv/aa
cd aa
mkdir uu
echo texttexttext >"uu/New Text Document.txt"
svn add uu
mkdir vv
svn add vv
svn commit -m "Created uu, vv and New Text Document.txt"
svn mv uu tt
svn mv "tt/New Text Document.txt" "vv/New Text Document.txt"
svn commit -m "Renamed uu and moved New Text Document.txt"

And this is the output (this time with SVN client 1.5.0-dev on linux):

Committed revision 42416.
Checked out revision 42416.
A uu

D tt/New Text Document.txt

Deleting tt/New Text Document.txt
Deleting uu

svn: Commit failed (details follow):
