a repository?

Everything works fine except our project is now to the point where I want to start using tags. Since the archives were created without a 'trunk' I don't have a good way to do this. What I would like to do is fix the archive so that the directory structure looks like the recommended. I have not been able to find a way to move the entire repository into a new directory tree so that the code files are in a 'trunk' directory.

Yup, it's a simple set of svn mkdir and svn mv commands. Consider this pseudo-bash-code:

foreach PROJECT
        svn checkout url://to/repo/PROJECT
        cd PROJECT
        svn mkdir trunk branches tags
        foreach ITEM that is not trunk branches or tags
                svn mv ITEM trunk
        done
        svn commit -m "create trunk branches tags for PROJECT"
        cd ..
        rm -rf PROJECT
done
