If the original repository is at "http://server/svn/Proj1" and the new
repository is at "https://server1/svn/projs/proj001", then then you
have a checkout of "/trunk" in that repository, and this is exactly
the situation of which Ulrich speaks. You are changing the repository
root (from "http://server/svn/Proj1" to
"https://server1/svn/projs/proj001") and leaving the repository path
If the either repository is in some other location (e.g.
"http://server/svn" to "https://server1/svn") then you are not
relocating to a new instance of the same repository, making relocate
an invalid operation.

Is this really that hard?
Why does TSVN present the possibility of editing the repository path
(as opposed to the repository root; see above) if it knows that it
will later refuse that edit?
If, as the documentation suggests, I am not allowed to change the
repository path, that portion of the WC URL should either (1) not be
displayed, or (2) be displayed in a read-only format.
