The things that Subclipse are doing should be doable with any client.
The command line will certainly work.

Just do this:

1) Make a directory in the repository for the project:

svn mkdir -m "Initial import" url://server/repos/project/trunk

2) Checkout that folder to the root of the location with your files.

svn co url://server/repos/project/trunk LocalFolder

3) Add and commit.

svn add -R .
svn ci -m "Initial import"
