The last point is what tipped me off. There is almost certainly an invisible 
".svn" folder inside the .workspace folder. It contains information about the 
associated repository, which is why Subversion thinks it already exists. 
Cleaning out the .svn folder (at each level of the hierarchy, if applicable) 
should resolve the issue. You can use `svn export` on the command line (or File 
> Export…) to accomplish this for you as well.
