That's logical: you just dumpfiltered one part of your repository, but
that does not change anything else. Before "repository" was the
root of your repos, project-a and project-b just the first branches of
your folder tree. Now "subversion/project-a" and "subversion/project-
b" resp. are roots of your new now two repositories. And the old
folder trees (or what you left of them in each case) start there.
Once I dumpfiltered all *.JPG files from a repository; this just
removed the files, but did not change anything to the folder
structure.

However, I would think that you can simply move the contents of
project-a/project-a up one level and are done (delete the then
empty second project-a folder).
