You don't have permissions to remove the subdir or file entries in the
.svn directory...
Maybe that file is still open, or still has a lock attached to it?
I reboot my windows computer and run this script as administrator.
Do my script has a bug?
Are the directory or files marked as read only?
See this recipe and the comment from Chad Stryker:
http://code.activestate.com/recipes/193736-clean-up-a-directory-tree/
"Although it is true you can use shutil.rmtree() in many cases, there
are some cases where it does not work. For example, files that are
marked read-only under Windows cannot be deleted by shutil.rmtree().
By importing the win32api and win32con modules from PyWin32 and adding
line like "win32api.SetFileAttributes(path,
win32con.FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL" to the rmgeneric() function, this
obstacle can be overcome."
It might not be your problem, but if it is, this had me stumped for a
few weeks before I found this comment!

You should be able to do this with os.chmod as well (no extra modules
required). I'm not sure what the mode should be though. Perhaps 0777
does the trick.
