Re: ... is already a working copy for a different url

You might be looking for the relocate command, execute it on the current
working copy and tell it which server folder it should be:

http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.7/svn.ref.svn.c.relocate.html

Doing
svn info .
Shows the current server url, might be wise to check if that is what you
think it is

I don't know how to do this in your client
