Are you talking about the setuuid command?
$ svnadmin help setuuid
setuuid: usage: svnadmin setuuid REPOS_PATH [NEW_UUID]
Reset the repository UUID for the repository located at REPOS_PATH. If
NEW_UUID is provided, use that as the new repository UUID; otherwise,
generate a brand new UUID for the repository.
Script it however you choose.
