moving my repository the correct way

Hi,
I'm an SVN and TortoiseSVN newbie, but I have been using it a lot and it's
really saved my butt a couple times already :)

currently, I have a project called IF_Firmware, it's URL is:
https://wush.net/svn/pmd/IF_Firmware
I have all my project files at this location(*.h, *.cpp. etc)

I am starting to need to create branches, I reviewed the docs and decided
that I wanted to change my structure to something like:
https://wush.net/svn/pmd/IF_Firmware/trunk
https://wush.net/svn/pmd/IF_Firmware/branches
https://wush.net/svn/pmd/IF_Firmware/tags

I started doing this by creating a new 'trunk' folder in the repro browser
at:
https://wush.net/svn/pmd/IF_Firmware/trunk<https://wush.net/svn/pmd/IF_Firmware/>

Then I tried dragging the files using repro browser from:
https://wush.net/svn/pmd/IF_Firmware

to:
https://wush.net/svn/pmd/IF_Firmware/trunk

Things seemed fine until I tried doing 5 at once, I then got the warning:
"You moved more than one file or folder.
It's not possible to do that in one step, so
TortoiseSVN will move each file/folder
individually, creating a new revision for every
moved item.

Do you still want to do this?"

This made me think that I've gone about this all wrong. I have tried to
think of the correct way to do this, but I'm really not sure and I don't
want to mess it up.

Any suggestions would be very much appreciated. Thanks!
-Steve
