There are numerous others, such as pre-staging with "svnsync" to switch arachitures or refactoring of projects into different repositories, or finally getting things under $URL/project/trunk instead of $URL/trunk/project.. In that case, the UUID's of the repositories would be distinct, and switchover for clients is trickier.
You can use svnsync to do the copy, then change the uuid to match the old one as long as the final transaction matches - that is you do not do any commits during or after the last sync run. It is much slower than rsync'ing the underlying files (and doesn't take hooks), but might be worth doing if the original repo started with an old version of subversion.
