Hi,

This is my scenario:

Originally had two seperate repositories, I need to merge these into one repository. I don't care too much about the history in these repositories. I created a new repository and can import the repositories no problem.

The issue is with users working copies, I can ask them to

switch --relocate

them however there is the issue of the UUID which will be different for each original repository: I can only reassign the UUID in the new repository to match one of the original repositories.

So what is the best method to resolve this issue? (I suspect/hope I am going about this wrong...) Any ideas appreciated!

-Grant.
