Support » Our Service » Can I change the name of my repository?
There is no built-in mechanism in Subversion for renaming a repository.
Naming standards for repositories
We add a prefix to repository names to prevent duplicates. If you sign up with a company named Software Solutions and request a repository named Projects, we will create the repository softwaresolutions_projects.
If there is no company name, we fall back on a combination of the first and family name.
Changing the name of a repository
If you are on a paid plan, you can use svnsync to effectively rename a repository, by creating a new repository in your control panel and syncing your old repo to your new repo.
