Move from folder to root

[bluefish1960]

The shop I'm working on is about to go live so...
I just want to be sure about something here.
Moving my shop from a folder to the root seems pretty straightforward, but I want to clarify one thing.
Where I alter the path in config files from the /shop/ folder to the root, what do I actually type in for the root path?
Is it public_html or left blank or what.

Thanks

Assuming current paths are (like):

define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/shop/')
and
define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/var/www/shop/')

Then to have the store located in the root folder, the new paths will be like:
define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/')
and
define('DIR_FS_CATALOG', '/var/www/')

IOW, just remove the folder portion of the defines.
