No, 'switch --relocate' actually functions by rewriting the locally
stored metadata as strings. This is precisely what you should use in
this case, since you changed the repo out from under the working copies.
IMPORTANT NOTE: if you filtered *any* revisions out when you did the
dump/reload, you will have to throw away these working copies, as they
will no longer be in sync with the repo; i.e. they will think you are at
revision 1234, but the repo will think it is at revision 1111, and you
will be unable to do anything. You can always retain your local changes
by running 'svn diff' (which doesn't contact the repo at all) and
squirrel those changes away to reapply after you recheckout the code.
