You are aware that there's a separate "Rename" command in the
TortoiseSVN submenu which you need to use for such changes, i.e. if you
also want to rename the folder in the repositiory?

Explorer's regular "Rename" command just renames the folder, without
notifying any handlers of this change - so TSVN has no chance to act
upon that rename.

Also, TortoiseSVN will mark the directory you renamed as "missing" and
not check it by default - to really delete it from the repository you'll
need to check it and commit that.

The new directory is treated as a nested checkout (since it's the same
as if you had checked out your subfolder from the repo into a new
directory with the new name) and thus doesn't appear in the commit dialog.
