well, the question is: what was your repository path (/svn/proj?) and
what is it now (https://domain/svn/proj?)?

You may have done more than just relocated, but I can't see that from
your report above. Could you tell us a bit more what you did when
relocating it?

This is only correct if you moved your *repostory* from /svn/proj to
https://domain/svn/proj/trunk, which I somehow doubt.

The rest of your questions need more info to be answered...
