Sounds right to me.

Read the error message. You did not supply a commit message via the -m argument, and you do not have the environment variables set up for Subversion to call an editor for you to enter the message there. Try:

svn mv svn://prometheus.ecn.purdue.edu/RAID2/Users/garciagroup/svnrepos/reconstruction3D/Align.c svn://prometheus.ecn.purdue.edu/RAID2/Users/garciagroup/svnrepos/reconstruction3D/align_new.c -m "Rename Align.c to align_new.c"
