If the directory structure within the repo stays the same, there's no need for a new checkout. Only if you move trunk some levels above. In my opinion your "mycompany" within the repo is unnecessary and I would even think to divide your projects into separate repos and only have trunk, branches and tags in them. m.example.com would become it's own repo with only trunk etc. in it. But this depends heavily on the data and in your projects and how much you can and want to share between other projects etc. Maybe you should say a bit more about how many projects you have and of which kind they are. If it's only some web apps, I wouldn't export them on the server, too, but create tags for productive versions and check them out as normal working copy. > [a] is this advisable? if not, what is the proper way to do this? Restructuring things is nearly always advisable. :-) > [b] what would be the SVN commands to accomplish this? This depends on what you will actually do in the end, svn cp and svn mv may be enough, if you divide your repo into project specific ones you would have to create new ones with svnadmin create and dump and load the current into different specific repos etc. Have a look at svn help and svnadmin help. > [c] we've never done any branching or tagging before.

I would upgrade the server and client to the most current version, first, especially the new working copy format make life easier on moving and copying directory structures on filesystem or svn-working copy-level. If you are on Windows, restructuring with Tortoise is very easy, as everything you do is moving things in Windows Explorer and decide if it should be a working copy-level operation or not.
