I assume http://localhost/svn/repos is the root of your repository.

You'll probably have to:

svn mkdir http://localhost/svn/repos/trunk
svn mv http://localhost/svn/repos/a http://localhost/svn/repos/trunk
svn mv http://localhost/svn/repos/b http://localhost/svn/repos/trunk
...
svn mv http://localhost/svn/repos/z http://localhost/svn/repos/trunk
