Is it OK to rename repository directory?
Assuming all users have committed their changes, etc., is there a
problem with renaming a repository directory with "mv"? Users would
then have to delete their working copies and check out new ones under
the new name, correct?

Have your users change their $SVNROOT by running 'svn switch
--relocate'. The --relocate switch causes all the URLs to be rewritten
without talking to any server. Useful when the server's hostname
changes, or any part of the the SVNROOT.
