Typically you would "svnadmin dump" your projectA repo, "svndumpfilter" it to include only the subdir for projectB, then "svnadmin load" it into the projectB repo. However svnadmin requires direct filesystem access to the repo's, which Google does not offer you. So you must use svnsync to make a copy of your projectA repo to your own machine, where you can then "svnadmin dump", "svndumpfilter", and "svnadmin load" into a new repo, again on your computer. Then you can use svnsync to transfer the new repo up to the projectB repo on Google.
