so basically I do an svndump and then I use sed to remove the trunk
directory like this:
sed 's/trunk\///g' dumpfile > dumpfile2
The above command will remove any entries that have "trunk\" from the file
'dumpfile'.
You may have to be more creative with your sed syntax...
Let me know how it goes...
My dumpfile was 23GB so the beauty of this command is that it does not
matter what the file size is.
You can also send the output back to same file if you are 100% certain of
your sed syntax.
