Renaming SVN repository project name


I have migrated a project from CVS to SVN. Now I need to rename that project. What can be the best possible way to rename it, keeping the all the history intact. The project folder contains some 100 numbers of C and its header files.


Solution

  • The original answer (which got accepted) was relevant at the time the question was asked, for the original questions (which has since been edited as well).

    Things have changed and as others have pointed out in this thread, there are now better ways to rename repositories and/or projects inside a repository.

    I've converted this answer to a community wiki to let others maintain it forward and ensure it stays relevant. SO won't let me delete the answer because it was accepted and you can't delete and accepted answer.
