You have to edit all of the CVS/Root files to point to the new
server. Scripts have been posted for this in the past. Something
like this (untested!) should work:
perl -pi.bak -e 's|\@gcc\.gnu\.org/cvs|\@subversions\.gnu\.org/cvsroot|' \
$(find . -name Root | grep CVS/Root)
- replacing gcc\.gnu\.org with the appropriate hostname, whatever you
happen to have in your CVS/Root files. They're all the same for any
given checkout.
It may also be necessary to tweak the CVS/Repository files, I'm not
sure.
