The question is how comprehensive the changes are; if there's really _no_ sharing and no history between the two versions, Eric probably wants to do what Sune said if he wants the new code to be the trunk:
But really, why not do this:
- Delete trunk.
- Move in new files.
- Commit.
It's the simplest option for the scenario where literally _everything_ is different, from the ground up. But it's not usually what you want to do, because it doesn't preserve the history of the files.
Right... it's only for this rather special scenario. To the OP: I would add a step 0.5) Copy trunk to a tag or branch (in svn, there is no real difference; only what you read into it), to make sure you can still do patches to it etc.
