I have a repository structure like:

I know I can use svn move, but I want to keep the same revision
number as of now. Is there any smarter way to get rid of the trunk
dir and make 'abc' go one level up.

You can't change what is in the repository without committing it as a revision.
Well... that's not strictly true... you can dump it, use dumpfilter, import it
to a new path... but it doesn't seem worth it when a svn mv will do it in a few
seconds.
Also, making a change but not changing the revision number doesn't make
any sense in the context of a revision control system. It's there to
make sure you can get back both what you have now and the next thing you
do to it. And if you want to think of revision numbers as something to
keep, you probably should be doing copies into a tags directory instead
of doing away with the trunk.
