Right-click on a folder in your repository and choose TortoiseSVN | Repo-browser. That will bring up a nice windows-explorer-like window in which you can rename folders, move them around, etc. via drag-and-drop and the right-click context menu.

Assuming both projects reside in the same repository:

check out a working copy of both projects. Since you're using TortoiseSVN, right-drag the folders and files from ProjectB to ProjectA and then select "SVN Move files to here" from the context menu.

However if the projects are in separate repositories, you have to use the svnadmin tool which comes with the command line client of Subversion.
