Occasionally, you want to rename a space or its URL. It's simple using the Assembla web app.

Renaming a space

To rename a space

  1. Go to Space Settings > Appearance.

  2. Simply change the Space name, and then click Save Changes.

Renaming your space URL

While you can rename a space URL in the web app, you cannot make this change while a repository tool is installed.

To rename your URL

  1. Make a back up of all of your repositories.

  2. Remove the repository tools using the following steps:

    1. Going to Space Settings > Tools.

    2. For each repository, click Delete.

  3. Use the steps above for renaming a space, and you'll notice the URL name is editable.

  4. Make your change, and then click Save changes

  5. Re-add all of the repos on the same page where you did the deletions and you can import the dump to restore the repo. For more information on how to import dump info to your repository, check out our article on Migrating SVN Repositories to Assembla.
