One last question about the migration:
So, right now we have the repo at the datacenter and we ci from the office.
Would something like the following be safe to migrate to these dev/prod chained repos?

  dump prod.repo at the datacenter
  load prod.repo at the office
  sync the office repo to the datacenter repo

Since, right after the migration, both repos will be identical (right?), can I just leave it that way or should I delete the old repo at the datacenter and then sync it back from the office?
Do I need to remove the .svn dirs from the office and/or prod to regenerate them?
Do you foresee any tricky situations?

Thx,
JD
