unknown command: ‘svn-commit.tmp’

I have never seen this type of output from svn ci. svn ci is just an alias for svn commit. Anyway, if you know how to fix this, that would be amazing. Until then, I cannot commit any code lol. I looked around on Google for others having this error but I didn’t find anything.

Running svn cleanup doesn’t fix anything

    Could it be that the EDITOR (or SVN_EDITOR, etc.) environment variable is set to svn-commit.tmp? (This environment variable specifies which editor you want to use to edit the commit message.)

    Though on Linux, at least, you would get a more meaningful error message:

    sh: svn-commit.tmp: not found
svn: Commit failed (details follow):
svn: system('svn-commit.tmp svn-commit.tmp') returned 32512

    Perhaps you are on Windows, this is the problem, and the error message is terse?
