Change newly made repository path.

I created a repository path but not in the correct location.  It
should have put in a subdirectory from where it is now.

Can I just delete the existing repository directory and create a new one?

There is no data in this repository, it was newly created.

Yes,

I wanted to use /home/me/repos to house several different
repositories.  However, I originally created the repository in
/home/me/repos but would have preferred it to be in say...
/home/me/repos/project1.

I was not sure if I deleted the (empty) repository and recreated it,
it might leave residual problems of the old location.

I have deleted the empty repository and recreated under a project
repository as described above.  All appears to be working O.K.

Thanks.

You're talking about where you put the repository itself? Not about  
any paths you created within the repository? Yes, sure, you can  
remove and recreate the repository in the new location if you like.  
You can also just move the repository elsewhere. For example, if you  
did this:

$ cd /foo
$ svnadmin create repo

but you meant to put it under /foo/bar then you could just:

$ mkdir bar
$ mv repo bar/
