Hi,
what you can do is create new repository. Then tar the modules(in old
repos) to separate tar files and the untar them in the new repository.
This is actually physically moving modules from one repo to another. As
version info will be maintained by the RCS files themselves, this should
work.

Thus your new repo will have all modules which were there in the other
older repos.

Cheers.
Mahantesh.
