The one with the arrow should be pointing to an external definition, i.e. svn:externals.

The overlayed folder should represent an external link, although usually the arrow icon is red instead of blue.

An external link is like a pointer to a source stored in another location in the repository or even stored in a different repository.

Here it is a topic related to an issue on external links, where the user also wonders about the icon.
