Yes, you can move a repository to a new location. The repository
files do not store their absolute path anywhere. You would need to
update your svnserve or apache configuration files to look for the
repository in its new location. If you've written any hook scripts,
you should check them as well for possible occurrences of the
absolute path to the repository.
