How to fix a wrong SVN directory structure?

I am working on a project called InvSim. I use SVN for version control and to backup my files. Unfortunately, when I first set up the repository, I put the project directly into the trunk folder. In other words, my directory structure currently is the following:

trunk
    src
    input
    lib

What I would like to do is to instead have the directory structure to look like this:

trunk
    InvSim
        src
        input
        lib

From what I understand, this is the conventional to organize the SVN repository. Is there any way for me to fix the directory structure?

Create a new directory under trunk, and move everything you have to this directory. But your current structure is not unconventional, and there's probably no reason to change it.

try renaming the folder using SVN rename option. Right click on folder -> SVN -> rename

Install Visual SVN, this is handy

In your working copy, you can use svn mkdir InvSim to make a new directory. You can then use e.g. svn mv src InvSim/ to move each of the original directories in turn. Then do an svn commit.
