Since we are sure this is what is happening, how about:
"It appears you may be attempting to relocate your working copy
inside the same repository"
Since relocate is a potentially lengthly operation any how,
how hard would it be to query the proposed new path and check
if it is the same repository (isn't their a UUID we can check?)

I think 'inadequately' isn't quite the correct word here.
I think a better word choice would be:
"Improper use of relocate *will corrupt your working copy!*"

Just out of curiosity, how hard would it be to make the
options"
[Relocate] [Switch] [Help]
And allow the user to turn it into a switch command
right here on this dialog? (I know you'd probably
have to do a custom dialog instead of using a message
box...)
Thanks,
