IIRC, Import also bypasses the client-side global ignores in the TSVN
settings and in the SVN client registry configuration. (Or at least one
of those.)

Which is one of the reasons why I never ever use it.

Use the Repo-Browser or another method (eg. web access to some external
hosted repository) to create an empty folder in your repository first,
then SVN Checkout that folder to the folder you want to import (making
sure that it does get checked out to that folder, and not a subfolder of
that folder -- it'll usually default to the latter especially if the
names don't match).

After that, you've got a normal working copy that you can Add things to
and then finally Commit once you're happy.

If you find yourself doing this a lot, you can even create a "pre-made"
empty folder (possibly with some properties pre-set) and use the
Repo-Browser to make a copy of that rather than creating a truly empty
folder. (This was more useful before 1.8 inherited properties though.)
