I think you have a usage error.

  $ svndumpfilter help include
  include: Filter out nodes without given prefixes from dumpstream.
  usage: svndumpfilter include PATH_PREFIX...
                               ^^^^^^^^^^^

What PATH_PREFIX is meant to say is that svndumpfilter expects
an in-repository path. But you gave it a URL.

Try something like:

    cat repo.dump | svndumpfilter include --drop-empty-revs
      --renumber-revs /B > sv.dump
