how to fix corrupted repository

Hello,

It seems that my repository was corrupted by a seemingly simple
directory rename operation. The command was something like the following
(I do not recall exact details):

  svn rename a/b/ c/b

All I wanted to do was move "b".

Now I get error messages like this:

% svn commit --message "attempt to fix common/graphics/buttons"
svn: Bogus URL
svn: Commit failed (details follow):
svn: Commit item 'C:/cygwin/home/Asha/hello/trunk/common/graphics/buttons/home.
X3D' has copy flag but no copyfrom url
See issue #830
%

This error was happening with another file, so I deleted the file,
and now I get error with this file. I decided I should get more info
rather than continue deleting files.

I did the svn rename using version 0.15 or thereabouts of Subversion.
I tried running "svn cleanup" with version 0.15 and that didn't seem
to help. I uninstalled version 0.15, installed svn 0.23.0, did svn
cleanup, and that didn't seem to help either.

I looked briefly at issue 830 and in issue tracker, and was not
enlightened.

What is going on, and how do I fix my repository?
