title: How can I restore svn control if the .svn folder has been damaged?
body: <p>I've got a couple large checkouts where the .svn folder has become damaged so I'm getting and error, "Cleanup failed to process the following path.." And I can no longer commit or update files in that directory.</p>
  
  <p>I'd just delete and do the checkout again but the whole directory is over a gig.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a tool that will restore the .svn folders for specific folders without having to download everything?</p>
  
  <p>I understand that it's going to have to download all the files in that one folder so that it can determine if they've been changed..but subdirectories with valid .svn folders should be fine.</p>
  
  <p>Oh.. I'm a big fan of TortoiseSVN or the command line for linux.</p>
  
  <p>Thoughts?</p>
