I deleted manually a directory I just added, offline, in my repository. I can't restore the directory.

Any attempt to do an update or a commit will fail with :

"blabla/.svn" containing working copy admin area is missing.

I understand why, but is there anyway to fix this.

I don't want to checkout the entire repo and add my changes to it manually, it would take hours.
