Try:
http://svn.gnome.org/viewsvn/$repository/?view=queryform

The integrated query interface doesn't make it easy to do cross-repo
queries though.

You can list branches with the "svn ls" command. For example:

$ svn ls http://svn.gnome.org/svn/libgnomeui/branches
CANVAS_CLEANUP/
GNOME_0_27_PATCHES/
GNOME_0_30_MARTIN/
GNOME_STABLE/
GNU/
GNUMERIC_FUNCS/
GNUMERIC_NAMES/
HACKED_STYLES/
LIBGNOMEUI_2/
...
