You could use "svn diff" to generate a "patch file", which is a list of
your changes, then use that to patch the new directory on the other
repository. Suppose revision 35 contains the changes you want to copy:

proj1> svn diff -r34:35 > r35.patch
proj2> patch -p0 < ../proj1/r35.patch

This copies textual changes from one working copy to another, but won't
pick up file adds, deletes, or renames.

If you want to do something fancier, take a look at svk -- it can merge
changes between repositories. http://svk.elixus.org/

Cheers,
Mike.
