Changing SVn Repository

Question

I had a system loss due to a hard drive crash. I could not restore that machine so I built another one with a different name and restored the repository from a backup.

I have outstanding changes checked out and use Tortoise SVN as my client. I cannot do any commits of the changes because the configuration is pointing to the old repository.

Is there a simple way to change the configuration so that the client points to the new repository?

Found in this answer:

Use the svn relocate command.
It takes either FROM-PREFIX TO-PREFIX [PATH...] or TO-URL as arguments.

See
svn help relocate
for more information.
