Done, by accident, a clean up including unversioned files.
TortoiseSVN indicates deleted unversioned files can be recovered from

As per the below mail, I've unknowingly deleted the unversioned files.
How to recover them?
Subversion, by design, does not version unversioned files. Requesting to
delete them will do exactly that. If they should be permanently
versioned, you should commit them. Read about branches, in particular
feature branches, to create a permanent record of intermediate work
inside the repository.
The TSVN extension for the recycle bin functionality is custom to them.
I looked into adding API support for this via the Windows API/ XDG where
supported but this would go beyond the tool.
Why is this not yet fixed ?
I believe that desktop backup, and point-in-time recovery for
uncommitted work are out of scope for Subversion. The recommend method
is to work on branches.
