Yes. There is a tool called svnmucc that exists in the repository.
Currently you have to compile it yourself, but I think there are plans
to make it more official. It has received a lot of TLC recently in

There has been talk about taking this further and making it an actual
shell, but right now is a tool that lets you run several commands as
one operation.
