If I try a relocate in TortoiseSVN, I get an error saying the uuid of

No, this is because the UUID is different.


I've done some searching and have followed a suggestion and edited the
wc.db and replaced old server uuid with new server uuid, tried the
relocate command again and things seem to be working and pointing to
new server.


No, see "svnadmin help setuuid"


I also know that doing a new checkout from the new server may be the
simplest solution. But perhaps some folks will not commit all of their
changes before switchover because they are not ready.


Make the old one read-only via a pre-commit hook if you can.
