You have possibly done the initial checkout not at the
Top_project_folder level, but one folder deeper. Check your working
copy folders to see if the Top_project_folder has an svn tab when you
open the properties window (Ctrl-Enter on the folder, or
Right-Click->Properties).

If it has no SVN tab, you need to do a fresh checkout of the Top_project_folder.

If it has an SVN tab, you probably have what we call a 'sparse'
checkout. That can be fixed by doing an 'Update to revision...' on the
Top_project_folder in your working copy and setting the update depth
to 'fully recursive'.
