May I upload the whole namespace root folder over the old one without messing up all those meta and other things DokuWiki use during any save process ?
I have, successfully, many times.

Is there specific actions to be done ?
Ensure you take care of EOL if you are using Windows to create the files. You may have problems if any of the new pages were supposed to have been created with database plugins. There may be other caveats I'm unaware of as I haven't used the majority of plugins - so backup the
data/pages dir first (
tar -cvjSf pages`date +%d%m%Y-%H%M`.tar.bz2 $PathToDokuWiki/data/pages). Any search plugins
may be affected - I don't know as I don't use any.
If you update media files ensure you change the filenames to DokuWiki format first (
rename 's/ +\././; y/A-Z /a-z_/'), and backup
/data/media first.
