I'm not an svn expert but if you want to get the full history yet exclude some files, starting from the full dump that you have, the logical way seems to be: 1) Filter that dump to keep only /flex 2) Filter the result to remove the full history of all unwanted files Note that the software grant from Adobe includes a .txt file with the list of all files that are contributed - this should allow for implement 2) with a script, if svndumpfilter allows for eliminating individual files (as opposed to folders) from the dump. If you don't have enough disk space on the machine that hosts the big dump, you might transfer it to a box of yours which has more space, in chunks of 1GB of less, created with dd, copying and deleting one chunk at a time (using a script of course;-) to minimize disk usage on that box. -Bertrand >>[1] >>http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.5/svn.ref.svndumpfilter.commands.c.includ >>e.html
