Update to latest version from command line

Question

Is there an SVN command-line utility that allows you to update a given directory / repository to the latest version?

I would like to be able to remotely update our development server without having to go into remote desktop etc., as there are often times where all the RD terminals are in use, if it was command line I could do it via SSH, for example.

Cheers, Ed

Answer 1

There is a command-line client for Subversion. You can see the usage options it offers if you type svn help. The one for updating would be simply svn up.

Answer 2

Simply type svn update [name-of-directory], or cd to that directory and type svn update there.
