Sorry, neither do I. There are probably scripts floating around
allowing you to use a combination of svnlook tree with grep to
provide search functionality on content (svnlook cat) and
meta-data (svnlook author, proplist, log, info, etc).

If it's a client-side search then won't you need to expose the
search criteria and results via another mechanism (web service?)
if it isn't possible in the svn api?
