Renaming SVN Projects
We have a single SVN repository with multiple projects.
I would like to deprecate one of the projects by appending "-Deprecated"
to the project name.
Is there an SVN command for renaming a project within a repository, or is
this something that I should do within the server's file system?

Thanks to everyone who replied so far.
Obviously, I did not make myself clear enough.
When I first tried to rename the project, I got the following response:
$svn mv http://svnServ/svn/WeNetCommon http://svnServ/svn/Proj1-Deprecated
svn: PROPFIND request failed on '/svn'
svn: PROPFIND of '/svn': 403 Forbidden (http://svnServ)
That is why I posted my question.
On the file system, our SVN repository is set up as:
/SVN/
repos/
Proj1/
branches
tags
trunk
Proj2/
branches
tags
trunk
Proj3/
branches
tags
trunk
Access to SVN is via an Apache web server where http://svnServ/svn maps to
/SVN/repos on the SVN Server.
When we create new projects, we create them in the repos directory. Note:
This means there is no /SVN/repos/.svn directory.
Perhaps I am stating this incorrectly. Are we actually creating separate
Repositories under the repos directory?
Should I have actually asked about renaming repositories?

You want to use svn mv to do this. Anyone who has the original checked
out will see it deleted the next time they update.

As you've set them up, a "project" is just a directory, so a simple
svn rename <URL> <newURL> (to do a server-side rename, which won't
require a checkout) should work.
