An alternative to this step, which will end up creating an in-place
working copy (be careful of deleting anything though, since you don't
have an 'extra' backup by doing this until it's been fully committed):

2a. Using the Repository Browser, create an empty folder where you want
to commit the files to.

2b. Using SVN Checkout, checkout this empty folder on top of the folder
containing the files you want to import (it will warn you that the
folder already exists, just continue regardless).

2c. Either go through and SVN Add the files that you want to import, or
just go to SVN Commit and tick the checkboxes there.

This allows you to be more selective about what you're importing than
the "Import" command permits.
