So it looks like your repository indeed contains directories you did
not intend.

I recommend:

svn mv \
http://venus.savvion.com/swa/sbmrepos/svn/sbmrepos/trunk \
http://venus.savvion.com/swa/sbmrepos \
-m "moving trunk to correct location"

svn mv \
http://venus.savvion.com/swa/sbmrepos/svn/sbmrepos/branches \
http://venus.savvion.com/swa/sbmrepos \
-m "moving branches to correct location"

svn mv \
http://venus.savvion.com/swa/sbmrepos/svn/sbmrepos/tags \
http://venus.savvion.com/swa/sbmrepos \
-m "moving tags to correct location"

svn rm \
http://venus.savvion.com/swa/sbmrepos/svn \
-m "removing unnecessary directories"

You should end up with the directory structure you desire. You may
want to make a backup of your repository first, and play with these
commands on the backup, to make sure the result is what you want.
Then you can do it for real on the live repository.

Note that these 4 commands will create 4 revisions. You may prefer to
do everything in one revision. You may be able to do so by using the
svnmucc client instead of the svn client. I myself have never used
svnmucc so I cannot advise you in its use. It is available here:

http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/contrib/client-side/svnmucc/
svnmucc.c

Note that once you do these moves, anybody who has an existing
working copy of this repository with the longer URLs will need to
either switch their working copy (using "svn switch") to the new
shorter URL, or will need to throw away their old working copies and
check out new ones. (As you prefer.)
