It is not quite clear to me what you want to achieve there,
but in general, you'd do *nothing*, let us branch the repository (you will
be informed when that happens) throw away your working
copy and do a new checkout with

svn co https://galinha.ucpel.tche.br/svn/chicken-eggs/release/3/<youregg>

(instead of "svn co https://galinha.ucpel.tche.br/svn/chicken-eggs/<youregg>")
