For the people that voted for repository editing, what did you want exactly? Here's the first thing that crossed my mind: you have a repository at /repo and maybe a directory like /repo/dir that is taking up too much space. You could run something like:
rdiff-backup-editor delete /repo/dir
that would delete /repo/dir and remove all history of it from the
repository. It might also be possible to do something like:
rdiff-backup-editor move /repo/dir /repo/newname
which would move /repo/dir to /repo/newname, and alter all the history
so that all the changes that took place in /repo/dir now seem like
they took place in /repo/newname. Or what else did you have in mind?
Also more generally, why do you want to edit an existing repository?
Is it to save disk space?
