That still works as before. You may have run into an issue which can't
be avoided: if you don't commit *everything* if you have a deleted
folder, then the commit will fail. The reason is that in such a case,
TSVN has to do the commit non-recursively but commit every item
separately (in one commit, but each item is specified separately).
Deleted folders can't be committed that way, they can only be committed
recursively.

So: simply commit *all* your changes from the top folder if you have a
deleted folder.
