Because svndump works on repositories on the filesystem (e.g. the
administration) level. The result of an svn load is a repository, hardly
what you want when moving to TFS.
You actually need a TFS Guru since that is your target system. Codeplex
does not provide svn support, it allows you to use TotroiseSVN (instead
of the insanely unusable VS source control client) against TFS repositories.
I have to tell you, since you are moving from svn to TFS: welcome to a
world of pain.
I have rarely encountered a worst SCM experience then the one I have to
daily deal with TFS - to my knowledge only VSS was worse (and I've
worked with ClearCase, RCS, CVS, Perforce, svn, mercurial and git :) )
For the flame record, I am not a huge svn fan, but it beats working with
TFS anytime.
To your problem: Unless you find a ready made migration solution out
there (I haven't found one) you'll have to put your own together. This
http://migrationsynctoolkit.codeplex.com/ might help.
