It's generally not possible to delete old revisions without wiping out the
entire repository.

May I ask why you are storing Zip files in SVN? It's usually considered bad
practice, as you are usually better off storing the constituent files,
resulting in smaller deltas between each revision. This is to say that there
is a tradeoff between 200 MB of uncompressed files with only 2MB of overhead
for each change, rather than 100 MB of zip with 100 MB for each change --
the exploded zip pays for itself in very short order.

Alternatively, you might wish to store zips (eg, for releases) as regular
project downloads instead.
