Add the following to your .htaccess, in between the <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>:
RedirectMatch 301 /home /homepage
Redirect 301 / /homepage
However, as Omar suggested, you can change your homepage through your [dashboard] by doing the following:
- Go to Settings > Reading
- Under Front page displays, select A static page (select below)
- Next to Front page: select the page for your new homepage from the dropdown menu
- Click Save Changes
