You can treat this as a basic file migration - you must obviously make sure
no-one accesses the files after you initiate the migration.

In case you have new drive names/paths on the new server, the users may
have to "relocate" their working copies (relocate = connect the working
copy to the new location of the repository). This is done using the "svn
relocate" command or in the context menu of Windows Explorer (in the
working copy folder), TortoiseSVN, Relocate.

Kind regards,
