use svnadmin to set revision number?

we migrated a subversion repository from one machine to another. about a week later, we had a harddrive failure on the new machine. unfortunately we hadn't put the new machine on the backup schedule. so we've lost the changesets since the migration, but that's not a big deal. i have the "canonical" version checked out. but i'm about 50 revision numbers beyond the old repository. what i want to do (other suggestions welcomed) is restore the old repository, check in what i have, and then "add 50" to the repository version number. this way everyone else will be none the wiser, and have to update to my canonical copy before they check-in (assuming they have missed a couple of the most recent check ins). i hope this is clear. so my question is how to "add 50"? i didn't find this in the svn book. thanks much.

p.s. sorry if this appears twice. i wasn't subscribed the first time.
