History gone after moving files in repository

Hello,

could somebody please explain to me how the history got lost in the following scenario (SVN 1.7)?

1. Colleague had not created a \trunk folder under his
   project folder but just checked in to his project
   folder.

2. Later he created a branch, this time he first
   created a branches folder below the project folder.
   Project folder now contained folders and files of
   his project and a branches folder.

3. because we wanted to reintegrate and because
   revision graph looked slightly odd having a main
   line with revision 839 and the newest branch
   version also having revision 839 and all in between
   revisions had been shown on branch and on main line
   I thought it would be good to first create a trunc
   folder and move the current project version to that
   so the project folder would have a trunk and a
   branches subfolder. I used repository browser for
   it and moved all files and folders except branches
   into that newly created trunc folder.

Since then on looking at the version history of that trunc folder via log or graph only shows two revisions: the one when creating this and the one for the move.

Is there any way (besides looking at individual files history) to see the history again on trunk?

Greetings

Markus
