How do I Branch Without Getting Branch Folder?

I created a directory structure as follows:

MyProject/Trunk

MyProject/Branches

MyProject/Tags

Our team has started working in the Trunk folder. I created a branch in the
MyProject/Branches/RicksBranch. I can switch back and forth between the
branch and trunk and make changes.

The only problem is that when I want to work on the trunk, it creates a
complete copy of every file in the project in the Branches/RicksBranch
folder. When I Switch to the branch, it deletes every file in the Branch
folder.

This is fine when the number of files is small, but as the amount of content
increases, this will take a long time to checkout every file in the Branches
folder. Is there any way to avoid this?

Thanks for your help,

Rick
