Hmm, if you only checked using the Trac interface, maybe this is an
issue with re-creating the SVN repo.
Joshua, do you run "trac-admin /path/to/trac/env resync" after
rebuilding the repository? (This command would re-sync the trac database
with the repository.) Otherwise I would certainly expect such issues as
Alvaro describes.
