The reason I am posting here instead of TortoiseSVN is I would
like to know whether it would be safer to have folks just do a new
checkout from new server once old server is shutdown, (and diff
folders if needed) instead of trying relocate, or should I have
them edit the wc.db and replace or try and change the uuid on the
new server to match the old one.
Since you use TortoiseSVN, the other option would be to remove the
.svn folder and do a new checkout in the same directory. TortoiseSVN
is quite nice that it picks up the existing files and says "Versioned"
on them and you can usually continue as before. The command line
client seems to mark the existing files as "Conflict" and require a
lot of manual work to resolve. Of course, test it first but it might
be an easier solution than manually carrying over any changes to the
new working copy.
I'd avoid editing wc.db - it usually works but I'd be careful asking
endusers to do it.
Kind regards,
Daniel
