Right but after that if I do a NORMAL "svn update" and it STILL does not
show up!!!
 
Perhaps it's as "svn update -N" became a sticky option - with no way to
make it unsticky?!?!

        We have a case where a directory that we know is in the

we try. We have been able to reproduce how subversion gets into this
state. Here is what we did:
         
        Starting in an existing working directory:
         
        c:> rmdir Reports ;# Where Reports is a directory
under version control and did exist in the working directory
         
        c:> svn update -N ;# Do a non-recursive update.
        D Reports
        Updated to revision 618.
         
        This does not recreate the Reports directory. Why not?

Because you told it not to recurse, which means don't go into
subdirectories. I guess it's a matter of semantics whether it should
create the empty "Reports" directory -- I'd argue it shouldn't -- but
restoring any of the files in Reports would definitely be wrong.
