You need a "working copy". Check out one in a sandbox area and
then make the appropriate changes. E.g.,

    cd ~/sandbox
    svn checkout file://path/to/repo tmpwc
    cd tmpwc
    svn mkdir trunk
    for f in *; do svn mv $f trunk; done
    svn mkdir branches tags
    svn commit -m "Finally got organized!"
