Newbie question: I just installed VisualSVN Server and created a repository. I noticed that it created it at C:\Repositories. I need it stored on my D drive instead as there is more space there. I Googled around but can't figure out how to do it.

This is a new installation so - if it is easier - I could delete the repository first.

In a nutshell: How do I get Subversion to store repositories at D:\Repositories instead of C:\Repositories?

Thanks, Roger
