I need to make a change now that sparc64-7 packages are ready

In the past these have been in the directory:

  /local0/archive/pub/FreeBSD/ports/sparc64/packages-7-current

but now it is time to move them to:

  /local0/archive/pub/FreeBSD/ports/sparc64/packages-7-stable

and to create packages-8-current (which will not be populated for a bit).

Of course, I can do that, but I am worried it will create unnecessary load.
Unfortunately erwin, who made the change for i386 and amd64, is traveling,
so I can't ask him what he did.

Can someone tell me what the correct sequence is?  Do the mirrors
automagically pick up the results of mv commands, so no files have to
be re-transferred?
