How to change the 'Repository Root' once a project is connected to SVN?

I don't know for what, but Subclipse asks for TWO URLs when connecting to a repository: The URL usual to SVN, and the 'repository root'. Other tools (SVN command line, TortoiseSVN) do not ask for that second URL. It seems that 'Root URL' is needed to truncate the tree of folders or something.
 
So now we have a problem with this. We copied a project from one machine to the other. Subclipse automatically created repository URL entries in the 'SVN Browser Perspective' without manual intervention. Cool. :-) But unfortunately, it didn't guess well the 'Root URL's, so now there is one new repository URL for each project, while on the original machine the root URL was set to one common supernode.
 
Now when I want to switch, I cannot select the trunk, because the root URL is set to 'branches/branch-current-when-copying', and as a result the trunk is not visible... :-(
 
So how to change that 'Root URL' to get back the complete folder list in the tree?
