working copies where SVN is not seeing them as linked to the same repository
location. You should verify the repository path(s) of these folders that
still have .svn folders; this might give you a clue on how to solve it.

One approach is to move/copy the nested parts out of the current hierarchy,
then do an 'update to revision' with depth 'infinite' at the top level (this
should bring in the correct folders/files). Then move the local changes back
into the working copy (without the .svn folders).
