I don't think it can be a transparent transition. You must give both
new repositories new UUIDs that are different from that of the
previous combined repository, because they are different
repositories. Then all users must check out new working copies.
To fix the doubled "projectN" in the URLs, simply use "svn mv" to get
things the way you want them.
