Hi Anton,

The command "svn switch svn://svn.freebsd.org/ports/head/" will do
what you want.  "svn relocate" repoints a working copy to a new URL,
if the repository has changed on the server side, but "svn switch"
updates the local working copy to match a new URL within the same
repository on the server.

Hope it helps,
Greg
