Deleting or renaming $HOME/.gnugpg

What will happen to gpg if I rename $HOME/.gnupg and start a new 
$HOME/.gnupg. I have not shared any of the keys and starting anew will 
not have any consequences to me or anybody else. What will it do to the 
gnupg?


Will it allow me to get on with my work while at the same time be able 
to revert back to the old configs by renaming directories, just to 
answer questions from the list trying to help me. Will this scenario work?


Thanks,


Ayoub
