Hi,

I am seeing some strange behavior I cannot explain at all, but I am not sure 
whether it is a bug or some strange state of my working copy which I do not 
know how to inspect yet.

After some "svn switch"ing, there is a directory missing from my working copy 
now, but svn status says I am clean, and svn revert does not bring it back.
"svn st" displays nothing, "svn revert --depth=infinity ." does nothing, but 
although e.g. "svn list" shows four subdirectories (as expected), only three 
of them are in my working copy.

Which commands should I try to determine why the folder appears to be lost?
For instance, I know it could be switched to god-knows-which branch which does 
not contain the folder, but then svn status should show it with an "S", no? 
(Maybe only for still-existing paths?)  How could I quickly revert such a 
switch (I already tried a switch in a parent directory)?

Shall I file a bug about it?

ATM, I think I could even still describe how I got there, since I still have 
the terminal open with the commands that led to this state.

Best regards,
  Hans
