If what the system is doing is deleting and adding a new folder, why don't
you do the same thing in svn?
Outside of Versions, temporarily rename the new plugin folder something else
so svn doesn't get confused,
In Versions, find the entry for the now missing plugin directory, and
right-click->Delete.
Then rename the new plugin folder back to the original name.
Add it in Versions and commit.

Hi, I keep all my websites as working copies so I can work on them locally,
then just run an update on the server.  The only thing to worry about with
this is making sure your .svn directories aren't accessible by the web:
use "RewriteRule ^(.*/)?\.svn/ - [F,L]"

It is up to you how little or how much you keep — I generally don't keep
post images just because I don't want to bulk up my repository with them,
but I do keep images used by the stylesheet.  Nothing wrong with it as long
as you have enough space to do it.

Hope that helps,
Ray
