Repo Renaming Question

Suppose I have a repository located at /home/svn/repos/ProjA_SubProj1
that supports Sub Project 1 in Project A. Now suppose that Sub Project
1 was being promoted to Project B. Could I simply rename the repository
folder (e.g. ProjA_SubProj1 -> ProjB)?

Note: For the purpose of this question, assume all users of
ProjA_SubProj1 will remove (delete) their workspaces that refer to
ProjA_SubProj1 and will simply checkout new workspaces from ProjB.

Thanks,

Ben

Probably a better question for the Trac User List.  However, I think
you'll have to create another Trac project for ProjB if you want the
repo path to start at ProjX (X being A or B).

Yes, ProjA_SubProj1 is already a repository root.

Anyone know if a Trac project can be updated for this kind of scenario?

Yes, you can just do an "svn mv" -- assuming ProjA_SubProj1 is a directory
under the repository.
If ProjA_SubProj1 is the repository root, you can just move it to ProjB [And
change any references -- example in apache/viewcvs setup]
