Is there a tool for subversion that can make the following changes to a svn
repository:
 - remove files from existence
 - merge a revision range (so that for example r100-r200, would all look
like one commit).
 - rename directories and files.
 - merge repositories.
 - split repositories.

Can svndumpfilter do these things?

If there isn't a tool that does this sort of stuff, is there any need for
one?

    svndumpfilter exclude

    sounds stupid imho
    
    although svk sync -s would do it. [1]

     svn mv

     svndumptool. [2] for many stuff an svnadmin load [--parent-dir] is
     already enough

     svndumpfilter

<ayita> svk is a decentralized version control system written in Perl.
It uses the Subversion repository and is somewhat interoperable with
regular Subversion, but provides additional powerful features.
http://svk.elixus.org (Its mystery is only exceeded by its power.)

<darix> svndumptool?
<ayita> svndumptool is a cool tool to mangle dump files. see
