[dba-VB] split an SVN database

I use SVN.  I am looking at doing a major split of a project into two projects.  I want to leave the 
existing solution until I have one half of the current project carved out, debugged and running and 
in it's own SVN database.  However I don't think I want to carry along the baggage of the old 
revisions into the new database.

How do I go about this?
