I get the following error message:

svn: Commit failed (details follow):
svn: Source url 'file:///var/svn/repos/myproject/tags/Demo-v1.0.1' is from different repository

Note that it’s calling the file: URL a “source”. That makes me suspect SVN is confused about the source and destination. In particular, I don’t think it’s legal to put flags like “-m” after non-flag arguments. SVN probably thinks you have multiple path arguments, and is treating all but the last one (“message”) as a source.

Try this instead:
svn copy -m “message" MyWorkingCopy file:///var/svn/repos/myproject/tags/Demo-v1.0.1/
