Ok. You can install a pre-commit hook to prevent this from happening
in the future:

Run "svn rm" for each file you want to delete. Then "svn ci".
Sounds like you've already deleted the files without informing
Subversion, and would like to now inform Subversion of this after the
fact. To find out which files you need to "svn rm", you could run
"svn st" -- those lines beginning with "!" are the files which were
improperly removed.
You generally don't want to detect things after the fact. Use the
correct "svn" commands at the time the action occurs. See the FAQ:
