To rename a folder in a working copy, we can run svn mv
. But when you try to rename the root folder, you end up with
svn: E155007: '/home/username/svn_repos' is not a working copy
Where 'svn_repos' is where I'm storing all my individual repositories (one for each course). Unfortunately, when I check out my course repository, the name of the root folder is my university ID, since the svn structure is host/course/user. I want to rename it to the course code so that it is easier to navigate. How can I do that?
