I confess I got a bit lost in your description, but many times when folks
have had major directory reorganization to do in Subversion, they've found
the 'svnmucc' took helpful. svnmucc will be shipped as a first-class binary
in Subversion 1.8, but has existed in Subversion's tools/ directory for many
years. I recently(ish) documented for Version Control With Subversion the
gist of the tool. See
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/nightly/en/svn.advanced.working-without-a-wc.html#svn.advanced.working-without-a-wc.svnmucc
for that write-up.
