You should be able to do that with a few lines of shell
or python code.
"svn info" gives you the URL of the current working
directory like this:
URL: http://server/repos/top-dir/second-dir/third-dir

After a "cd .." this should be:
URL: http://server/repos/top-dir/second-dir

etc.

Just keep doing "cd .." until the URL returned is not
the previous URL without the last element.
Then go back down one level to the previous wd.
