I've used the repomanage tool to do this. Something like this for one
of my local repositories:
repomanage --old $repo | while read package; do
dir=$(dirname "$package")
archive="$topdir/archive/$(basename $repo)"
[ ! -d $archive ] && mkdir -p $archive
mv "$package" $archive
done
You might also find some useful snippets in the scripts used to push
Fedora Extras packages (particularly RepoPrune.py):
