Did you possible delete/move a folder using the OS delete/move rather than the 
T-SVN version as you were moving stuff around?

Have you done an update? You might want to copy your WC and do an update on it. 
See if any folders are brought back. If they are, that means you used OS 
move/delete rather than the SVN versions. If that's the case you will have to 
use svn delete or move.

I'm not sure what you mean here. Do you mean exporting your working copy and 
then importing it in starting a new path? If you do that you will lose all your 
existing history. 

What you can do possibly is do is do a second check out to a new folder. Then 
use windiff or beyond compare to re-do your changes... make sure to use T-SVN 
move/delete commands as you do it.
