Thanks for the prompt response! I just compiled r1812050 and tested with my
own repo, however, somehow the svndumpfilter command cannot remove the
'empty' revisions from the filtered dump file....

Please report a small test case that demonstrates the problem, with the exact commands. A script that starts with "svnadmin create repo" and continues with "svn mkdir ..." and "svnadmin dump ..." and "svndumpfilter ..." would be ideal.

Without knowing what commands you used, my first guess is you used something like "svndumpfilter include / --drop-empty-revs".

$ svndumpfilter include --help
[...]
  --drop-empty-revs        : Remove revisions emptied by filtering.
  --drop-all-empty-revs    : Remove all empty revisions found in dumpstream
                             except revision 0.

--drop-empty-revs only removes revisions that *svndumpfilter* makes empty, not revisions that were already empty before svndumpfilter received them. In that case maybe you want --drop-all-empty-revs instead. Is that it?
