Why would anything be wrong with Subversion? Apparently something is not
going as expected in your own script, causing bash to exit.

Scripts always have to be adapted to local needs. On some systems, the
path for bash might be different, or bash might not be available at all.
That's each user's own responsibility.

Bash doesn't appear to have a "-e" option.  (There is a "-e" test to check if a 
path exists, but that's not a command line arg you pass in to bash.)

/bin/bash --help
man bash

You really need to read the manpage, which says:

All  of  the   single-character  shell  options  documented  in the
description of the *set* builtin command can be used as options when
the shell is invoked.

Let's go all the way down the rabbit hole:  http://ss64.com/bash/set.html

-e  Exit immediately if a simple command exits with a non-zero status, unless
   the command that fails is part of an until or  while loop, part of an
   if statement, part of a && or || list, or if the command's return status
   is being inverted using !.  -o errexit

Plan B; add -x to see what's going on:  #!/bin/bash -ex
