New repository for SVN on new server how to reconnect from TortoiseSVN

I have recently (successfully) relocated my SVN server from one server to another server using svnadmin dump/load.

How do I now reconnect my working directory/folders to the new server? Do I need to just remove my working folders and fetch it again? I had checked in everything before hand so there is nothing uncommitted?

This is a windows setup.

Basically, you just need to relocate your working copy. Therefore you need to run the command svn relocate <NewUrl>. There are some good examples in the SVN documentation here and the TortoiseSVN documentation here.

If the new repository has a different UUID then your old repository, you need to create a new working copy. To change the UUID of your repository, you can use the svnadmin setuuid command. See here.
