Importing several version of code from zip files?

Hello,
 
I am trying to start using subversion to do version control for
software which up to now I had foolishly maintained by archiving
full versions of the entire software tree in individual zip files, one
for each version of the tree.
 
So, I am wondering what the easiest way of importing this to subversion
is while at the same time being able to submit some history information
with each version.
 
I saw that there was a similar thread on this mailing list on Oct 9th
2004. At the time, Gerhard Wiesinger suggested the use of the
svn_load_dirs.pl script
 
I think this will work for me, but I would also like to be able submit
history information with each bulk import performed by svn_load_dirs.pl,
does anyone know how to do that with the script?
 
Also, just to make sure I understand it correctly, each bulk import
(ie. every time I run the script) would only increase the version number
of the repository by one, even though several files are being modified,
added or removed: correct?
 
Thanks!
