My choice would be to do it at the end of some hot day after it has dried
out a bit (or even withhold water an extra day or whatever appropriate
period of time), so its soil has shrunk a bit from the sides of the old
pot, the whole thing is a bit lighter in weight, and the soil is a bit more
likely to hang together instead of falling apart during lifting and
repositioning in the new pot.

But anytime would do.
