What we are planning to do is to keep the same hostname and the path to the repository. Hence it will be transparent to the users when it comes up.

If the old repository was accessed via a DNS alias - rather than actual host name
(or IP address) - and the path of the new repository is the same, then pointing
that alias to the the host of the new repository points all checked out
directories to the new repository.
