+ On IRC Faried presented us with this question:
+ 
+ svnadmin create repo1
+ ... import my project into repo1/prj1/trunk ...
+ svnadmin create repo2
+ ... import another project into repo2/prj2/trunk ...
+ 
+ How can i later combine the two repositories so i have repo3/prj1/... and 
+ repo3/prj2/...?
+ 
+ Currently you can't without loosing history, unless you have a script 
+ commit each and every revision to your new repository.
+ 
+ Greg Stein:
+ "One day, we might enable 'svnadmin load' to load a dumpfile with a 
+ specified prefix. That would enable merging of repositories."
+ 
+ To followup with that it would be nice to add an optional path argument 
+ to 'svnadmin dump' aswell, so that repositories can be split.
