I just fixed this in my own repository. I'm using TortoiseSVN on Windows, so I'm not sure exactly what commands this translates to on the command line, but here's what I did:

The problematic folder is called lib, and it was due to be added.

• First I undid the add, so that SVN was no longer paying attention to it.
• Then I renamed it (to libs, not that that matters) using the Windows context menu, added it, and committed successfully.
• Finally I renamed it back to lib using TortoiseSVN's context menu (this is probably important), and committed again.
