Try going to File > Subversion > Change Source Control... and changing the SCC Binding URL.

EDIT: I see that's not editable. You may need to drop to the command line for this.

In your base directory, issue this svn command:

svn switch --relocate http://old.repo.location http://new.repo.location

with your speific URLs, of course. I'd recommend reading up on the switch command so you're sure of what you're doing. When you reopen VS, AnkhSVN should pick up the new bindings. If you've added the solution through the File > Subversion menu, you may need to edit the .sln file. Just open it in a text editor and change all of your old repository URLs to the new URL.

You could also install TortoiseSVN and use the context menu to issue the Relocate command. This will be the easiest.

Back up your directory before any of these changes, of course.
