Re: How to relocate source repos for svnsync?

I don't think there is a way to do this. We recently ran into the same issue as the domain name changed. The only solution we had was to start over.

A way to keep everything from breaking if your old URL/repository is still working is to create a new repository with a different name. Go through the steps of initialization and synchronization on the new repository. Once the new repository is synchronized with HEAD on the master, remove/rename the old repository and then rename the new repository with the old repository's name. This should keep the down time to a near minimum.

Hope this helps,
