This is consistent with the information you give when saying you just commited something in the trunk.

Do an update in your trunk (the trunk checkout that TortoiseSVN uses), and it should be OK.

I had the same problem and didn't understand immediately that it was the trunk which was in mixed revision, not my branch.
