So you want versions 2.0 and 2.1 of "tool" to be in separate
repositories? The usual Subversion way would seem to be to have a
repository for the project, with main development occurring in "trunk"
and previous development lines maintained (for bug fixes or history) in
directories in "branches" with tags of specific past releases in
"tags":

/svn/tool (repository)
/svn/tool/trunk (main development -- e.g. 2.2 development line)
/svn/tool/branches (older versions)
/svn/tool/branches/branch-2.0 (2.0 development line)
/svn/tool/branches/branch-2.1 (2.1 development line)
/svn/tool/tags (specific releases)
/svn/tool/tags/tag-2.0.0 (released version 2.0.0)
/svn/tool/tags/tag-2.0.1 (released version 2.0.1)
/svn/tool/tags/tag-2.1.0 (released version 2.1.0)
etc.

Is there a reason why you're looking for a different approach?

You can of course also combine multiple projects into a single
repository. Whether to put everything in one repository or make a
separate repository per project seems to be something of a matter of
personal taste.
