Well... when you tag/branch you copy stuff in the repo. Since you copied the folder into itself and you have the MainFolder checked out... when you update... sure it is going to pull down the /tag and /branches folders now. You probably shouldn't have done a tag/branch but just gone into the repo browsers and added folders

Yep...for the most part. Are your "tag" and "branches" folders empty?
If so now all you have to do is copy everything in ManFolder (other than tags/branches) to trunk. That should do it.
