Hello there.   We generally consider repository resets to be a Bad
Practice.  There are typically only three legitimate reasons for
resetting a repository:

 1. Something really sensitive, confidential, or illegal was
accidentally committed, and now exists in the history forever.

 2. Some huge garbage was accidentally committed, and now a
ridiculous amount of disk quota is wasted.

 3. A project owner wants to replicate a prior repository into the
repository using the 'svnsync' tool (which requires an empty
repository at revision 0).

Can you let us know why you need the repository to be reset?  If it's
not for one of these three reasons, our recommendation is to simply
"svn rm" data in the latest revision, so that your filesystem appears
to be empty again.  This still gives you a clean start in terms of
repository organization, but without losing the older data.
