Created branches, tags, and trunk after the fact, MOSTLY works

Hello,

When the project repository was setup, we didn't include branches, tags,
and trunk (oversight on our part). It wasn't until we decided we wanted
to start branching that we realized this mistake. So in TortoiseSVN
repo-browser, I created branches, tags, and trunk folders, and from the
repo-browser, moved the existing folders into the trunk folder.

I also then created a branch from a specific revision, and it created
the branch for me. I've committed changes to the branch (and to the
trunk) without problems.

However, if I try to "svn switch" between trunk and a branch, I get "no
common ancestry" error (which I can override with --ignore-ancestry),
which leads me to believe that I didn't recreate the folder hierarchy
correctly.

Can anyone help?

Thanks!
