I considered doing it the way you described. Unfortunately, most of

SVN is storing binary deltas, not entire files, for each commit, I
believe I would have to reproduce them perfectly to get this
particular solution to work.
Any ideas how to get around this or where to go from here?
Perhaps you can do all the "svnadmin dump" steps. Then use
svndumptool to filter the problematic files out of all the dumps
after which a revision of their history was lost. Then you can load
these dumps in order into a new repository.
Ryan,
Perhaps. Unfortunately, for just one of the seven missing revisions
(rev. 7519), I don't have a record of what files were changed. I think
that will block me unless I can find a tool that will build a
dependency tree/map for me from that revision through to the HEAD.
Any ideas?
