Ok, the fix is to do a revert in the new directory (at the old the
location) of each file that was moved along with the folder to the new
location, effectively reverting the delete in the old location and
therefore making the new folder no longer know about those files.

Thanks again Stefan!

One piece of information that's missing:
What changes were made on trunk since she branched?

Also, can you try to produce a minimal sequence of Subversion commands
that creates your problem, starting with an empty repository?

Thanks,
