Open the SVN Repositories view.

Right-click on your existing repository.

Choose the Relocate option.

This launches a wizard to change to the new URL. This will update any
projects in your workspace accordingly.

Not from Subclipse. You either moved the repository or you didn't.
All the projects from that repos would need to be moved.

Hi Mark,
I have a question along the same lines. I needed to move my entire repo from one server to another.

I had my repo on serverA and used svnadmin dump to make a REPO.DUMP file.

I setup serverB, and created REPO then used svnadmin load < REPO.DUMP to reproduce the identical repo on serverB. Everything is working fine, I can see two identical repos in the repositories view located on two different servers.

Will doing what you describe in your reply below (using Relocate) allow me to disconnect (or dis-associate) the projects in my workspace (working copies) from REPO on serverA and connect them to REPO on serverB? Thank you.

Yes. The relocate option is basically just a wizard for telling us
you moved a repository to a new URL (but it is the same repository
with the same UUID). This wizard updates your repository item in the
view, which is trivial to do, but the main thing it does is run the
Subversion API for:

svn switch --relocate

On all of the projects in your workspace that were pointed to the old
URL. The SVN API does all the work.

Hi,

Thank you for your help with this. worked great for the most part.

However, somehow I now have a project in my workbench that "possibly" wasn't there when I ran the relocate command and now when I try to synchronize or commit, it continues giving me errors relating to the now extinct old repo.

Is there any way to change the url associated with the project manually? or a better way to do this? if i look at the project's properties, it has the new url and path listed in the subversion properties section. Thanks again.

Bartek

I have a very similar problem except that my old repository doesn't show up in the SVN Repositories view, and the old repository itself has been deleted. How do I get my project to point to the new repository location and basically start over? When I select Team->Share Project it leads me to a window that says:

Your project already has SVN directories. It was probably previously shared...

And it doesn't let me specify any other repository.

Let it share it, then relocate it from the view?

I did try that, but it gets an error since the repository doesn't actually exist:

org.tigris.subversion.javahl.ClientException: Connection refused
svn: Can't connect to host 'localhost': Connection refused

org.tigris.subversion.javahl.ClientException: Connection refused

Then either use the command line to run svn switch --relocate or
checkout the project again from the new repository location.

Does it matter that the new repository is empty? What I want to do is make the files that are currently in my Eclipse project that is still pointing to the deleted repository, the starting point of the new repository.

the new repository.

I can't remember, does the share process give you a chance to delete
the current .svn folders so that you can start over? Normally this is
only available when you do Team > Disconnect.

I think if you just delete the .svn folder from your project root
folder that will be enough. Share will warn you it is going to delete
all the metadata -- which is exactly what you want. You can then
share it with your new repos.
