I've searched the forum, and all the Subversion requests I've found are related to people wanting a SVN server of their own... Well, I want to be different! 
Quite simply, I just want to use SVN to keep an installed PHP app up-to-date. Unfortunately, I can't figure out how to do so. I've mounted my Document Root via WebDAV, and I've tried doing a checkout there. However, this gives an invalid argument when trying to move the entries file out of the tmp dir.
Does anyone know a way to successfully install/update software via SVN? I really don't want to have to keep local mirrors and sync them back and forth, just to use SVN.
Since there's no shell access, I was thinking about using cron jobs to do the checkout and updates. But would that be circumventing some ToS or something?
