Ben points out that this is likely only to hurt people who a) were
familiar with 'svnadmin archive' and b) assume that the move from that
subcommand to 'lsdblogs' was simply a name change.

C-Mike points out that other folks are just guilty of leaping before
looking, and deserve every bit of pain they get as a result.

-1 on a new subcommand, +1 on users who pay attention.
