I believe there is a dry run flag, too, so you can try it out first.

I've never had to do it myself, but the theory is you do a "merge"
into your working copy of the changes between the "bad commit" to 1
revision before that commit, and then you commit...
svn merge -r 613309:613308 .
svn commit -m "rolling back mistakes made in 613309"
...modern svn clients let you write that as...
svn merge -c -613309 .
svn commit -m "rolling back mistakes made in 613309"
...in this specific case, i don't know that it's any better then
just re-adding the jars ... either way i think anyone upgrading from
prior
to 613309 to after 613309 would still have had the old files removed
and
then readded back again.
