You're probably confusing "repository" and "working copy". Not a good

Easy solution: don't touch your working copy with TortoiseSVN.

No, TortoiseSVN is doing what it is supposed to do. You haven't
described how the integration is broken, it could very well be Visual
Studio plugin, couldn't it?

Don't use TortoiseSVN. Isn't that easy?
