Completely delete a repository with SVN

I have a repository at http://svn.mysite/MySite/. I used the Apache command line to delete it using rm -rf MySite/, and the directory disapeared, but I can still do checkouts from this repo.

How do I completely delete it, so I can start a new empty repository at the same adress that starts at revision 0?

1) Command Line:

2) GUI:

  • Get a version of Tortoise SVN and install it.
  • You need to have a permission to delete the repository
  • Right-Click anywhere on desktop > TortoiseSVN > Repo-Browser
  • Manually delete your target in this folder tree

Have you deleted it on the server or just your working copy? You need to physically remove the repository on the server.
