You need to re-read http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.5/svn.reposadmin.maint.html#svn.reposadmin.maint.replication

;-)

In a nutshell: the svnsync process will look at the source and the destination, see that it needs to mirror more than one revision and happily mirror all the missing revisions. Problem solved. :-)

Possibly, you might need to unlock the destination repo:

(WATCH OUT: if there is a sync in progress, you might break your destination!)

svn propdel --revprop -r 0 svn:sync-lock <destination-repo-url>

(WATCH OUT: if there is a sync in progress, you might break your destination!)
