How to get rid of missing directories in SVN commit?

Question

When I try to commit SVN reports about 10 old directories as missing.

I've deleted these directories quite a while ago. I've tried to create the same directory again but then SVN reports them as "obstructed" and I can't delete them.

These directories are not in the repository either. They are not affecting my commits directly but TortoiseSVN showing these folders in commit dialog. For sake for keeping my commit dialog clean to see other changes easily I want to get rid of these missing directories.

Is there anyway to solve this other than a clean checkout?

-- It's in the comments of accepted answer for future reference this is the solution which worked for me:

I've created the directory first locally then force to delete and it resolves the problem.

Answer 1

you must delete these directories from SVN using svn delete and then putting them in ignore

Answer 2

I came across this situation where I wanted the directory but it wasn't there (while doing SVN switch)

What worked for me was to run "svn up missingDirName" which restored the missing directory and it's contents.

this answer works very well.
first recreate the missing folder running "svn up missingDirName"
then delete it again in svn's grammer "svn del missingDirName"
at last commit it "svn ci"
