under version control or not?

I am a relatively new user of svn (version 1.2.3) and somehow managed to get 
into a bind, summarized below.  I don't have access to the server, so I 
(personally) didn't do any server-side stuff to bring this on.  I'm not sure 
what I can do about it, though.  The problem is that in the repository, there 
is no inst/doc directory, and I need there to be one.  How can I do that?

sdavis@pressa:/inst> svn add doc
svn: warning: 'doc' is already under version control
sdavis@pressa:/inst> svn rm doc
D         doc/GEOquery.Rnw
D         doc/GEOquery.pdf
svn: 'doc' is not under version control

Thanks,
Sean

Thanks, Ivan, for the thought.  But the directory already exists in the 
working copy.  Doing an svn status shows that nothing needs to be updated, so 
when I try to commit the directory to the repository, of course nothing 
happens.  

I ended up simply touch'ing the files in the directory and the directory 
itself.  Then svn status showed the changes and I was able to commit.  

Thanks again,
Sean

Try under your working copy:

$ mkdir inst/doc
$
$ svn add inst/doc
