Seems like the best option is as follows:
-----------------------------------------
svn import WiFiConfig <url>/WiFiConfig/trunk --depth files -m "msg"
svn co <url>WiFiConfig/trunk --force WiFiConfig

I.e. First import the directory and then immediately check out the
same with --force

It still takes some time because I think svn needs to download the
files into the cache in the .svn directory.
I have a rather slow connection to the server from where I am...
