I want to clear all files checked into the repository /svnroot

Is there a way to do this?

I don't find a possible command to do this:

[secret@vps303 ~]# svnadmin --help
general usage: svnadmin SUBCOMMAND REPOS_PATH  [ARGS & OPTIONS ...]
Type 'svnadmin help <subcommand>' for help on a specific subcommand.
Type 'svnadmin --version' to see the program version and FS modules.

Available subcommands:
   crashtest
   create
   deltify
   dump
   help (?, h)
   hotcopy
   list-dblogs
   list-unused-dblogs
   load
   lslocks
   lstxns
   pack
   recover
   rmlocks
   rmtxns
   setlog
   setrevprop
   setuuid
   upgrade
   verify
