How to change SVN url for commit?

I was able to somehow change the remote SVN repository URL. Thus, Idea / svn is now trying to transfer my project to the root of the repository, and not to the subfolder to which I actually have write access. How can i change this? (The url was originally correct and was previously correct for the commit)

The repository URL is stored in the working copy metadata; IDEA does not change it automatically. You can change it manually from IntelliJ IDEA using VCS | Subversion | To move .

It can also be executed from the command line using svn relocate or the Tortoise SVN Relocate... menu.

If your project is not stored in the root directory of your repository (for example: my-svn-repo/my-project/trunk ) and, for example, you renamed my-project to my-awesome-project , then the Relocate function will not work, because this is due to the repository, not its subfolders. In this case, you will need to do a “Switch” using:

  • IntelliJ Idea: VCS> Update Project> Select a new renamed folder or
  • Tortoise SVN: Switch> Select New Folder
