I just consulted Google and found the following.  It "worked for me"
with Subversion 1.7.5.

  sqlite3 .svn/wc.db 'update REPOSITORY set uuid="<new-repo-uuid>" where id=1'

Example:
$ svn update doctree
Updating 'doctree':
svn: E170009: Repository UUID 'c2e8774f-c49f-e111-b436-862b2bbc8956' doesn't match expected UUID '8026a357-cfce-e111-996c-001c23d10e55'

$ sqlite3 doctree/.svn/wc.db 'update REPOSITORY set uuid="c2e8774f-c49f-e111-b436-862b2bbc8956" where id=1'

$ svn update doctree
Updating 'doctree':
At revision 39236.
