Dear Sir

We have repository which contains trunk and branch. The head revision is at
913

*Our Requirement:*
We just want to dump the trunk, then delete the trunk and to move all code
from branch to the trunk then remove branch. Ultimately , we need to have
our current branch code in the trunk. At the same time we just want the
revision history to be loosed and there shouldn't be any increase/decrease
in the Head revisions.

*Our Problem:*

   - Trunk is stopped at revision 346 but the branch has grown up 913
   revision.
   - We don't want to merge trunk with branch and vice versa due to some
   unstable features in the trunk.
   - At the same time we want all the previous revision history to be
   maintained.

*What we have tried?*

   - We have dumped entire repository.
   - We have created dump filter for trunk code(this is for our backup
   process)
   - We have tried to create the dump filter for only branch code, but we
   are unable to get a perfect dump file for branch code itself [where we are
   getting trunk history in it].
   - When we tried to load the dump to the new repository, then the revision
   numbers are getting changed. We don't want this to happen. If the series in
   the old repository is r1,r2,r,3.. then the new repository should also
   maintain the same history r2 in old repository shouldn't be changed to the
   r1 in new repository.

Please provide with the process on how we can accomplish this. Thanks in
advance
