I thought I had tried that. You're right, it works.

In that case I have to report a misleading error message. If you delete
a subfolder and then try to commit the parent the error message is:

Error: Commit failed (details follow):
Error: Entry for 'C:\Temp\Test2\DeleteMe' has no URL
Error: Try a "Cleanup". If that doesn't work you need to do a fresh
checkout.

That last line should be split and say:
Error: Try a "Cleanup" or "Update".
Error: If that doesn't work... etc.
