If you are using svn 1.6.3 there really is nothing you can do other than dumping your repository and filtering out some older content.

If you used the Polarion importer than there is a setting in the properties files to have it use svn copy to make tags and branches. Check to see if you used it. If you didn't you may want to consider redoing your migration and replaying the changes from when you started using SVN into it.

That all said, disk space is pretty cheap these days.
