Have you tried dumping your whole subversion repository. If you cna get
a dump you can recreate the repository from that.

svnadmin dump /path/to/repos 0:HEAD > file

will do the trick. Loading it back via:

svadmin load /path/to/newrepos < file

svn dumps as plain text so as long as something can pull it out..
