You should change the last 2 commands to:

cat svnfilelist | awk ‘{print $12;}’ > svnfilenames
cat svnfilenames | while read name; do if [ -f "$name" ]; then echo “$name”; fi; done > svnfilenames2
cat svnfilenames2 | xargs sudo rm -rf

This filters out the directories because directories like /usr/bin could end up in the list, too!
