Get everyone to do their final checkins under the old name 2. Everyone now should delete their sandboxes with the old name in it 2. Shut down the cvsnt service 3. Rename the directory 4. Start the cvsnt server 5. Everyone checks out the module under the new name This should be safe enough. The biggest problem is if people keep their repositories under the old name - things can get very confused (someone manually renamed a directory here 6 months ago without telling anyone and it still bites us occasionally, because they renamed it when there was active development on it).
