Sure! You deleted the folder directly in the repository. So how should
your working copy know about that without an update first? The folder
still is versioned in your working copy.

Run a "cleanup". If an update gives you that error message, you must
have done something else in between than just adding and committing the
folder.

Revert does work, it just won't get you the folder back.

Yes. How about reading the docs?
Use the repo-browser, go to a revision where the folder still existed.
Select that folder and choose "copy to..." from the context menu. Then
in the "save as" dialog specify the location in your working copy where
you want the folder back.

No. We disabled the issue tracker because people didn't follow the rules
and filed completely useless/stupid/invalid issues.

Can you please be more specific about what you mean with "file menu is
messed up"?
