Hmmm ... I do this all the time, and I don't see any reason it should 
fail--nor do I see any way some such failure  could cause the 
particular error you report.  You run the script itself.  The text 
base is another file entirely, inside the .svn directory.  The 
message says that the _text_base_ is wrong, and your shell doesn't 
even know that file is there.

You said you were trying to commit while the script is actually 
running, but this looks like hand-typed commands (for example, 
there's a comment "make a change", but nothing showing that actually 
happening; also, I see shell prompts, like "D:\Working\03wc\hacks>", 
but I've never seen a shell do that during script execution, only the 
Windows command executioner). Can you provide a complete transcript 
of the failure actually happening?
