"svnadmin dump" the entire old repository.

To create the new repo that contains only "foo":

"svnadmin create" the new repo for foo
"svndumpfilter" the dumpfile to include only "foo" and load that into
the new repo for foo

To create the new repo that contains everything except "foo":

"svnadmin create" the new repo for everything but foo
"svndumpfilter" the dumpfile to exclude "foo" and load that into the
new repo for everything but foo

backup and then remove the old repo
backup and then remove all working copies of the old repo
check out new working copies
