I would suggest starting a new repository from the backup, make the
change you think you did in 29, get a dump of 30:36 using the
incremental flag (svnadmin dump [CURRENT_REPO_PATH] -r 30:36
--incremental), and load that into your new repo. No guarantees that it
will work, but it might.

No matter what you do, work with a new repository so you don't
accidentally lose any information that might be recoverable from the
current one.
