How to initiate remote SVN update on the server

Question

I use SVN for the project, and for simple deployment on the server, we just use a different set of SVN. So I used Remote Desktop to log in to the server, and then run the update (we use Tortoise SVN).

Is there an existing tool (or SVN function) that will allow me to run this update without logging into the server and do it manually?

Answer 1

Like ChrisH, this may be redundant, but CruiseControl or its equivalents on other platforms is very easy to configure for a simple SVN update. It would also be simple enough to include an Ant script or other assembly bits in this process if you need them.

:

1. create a binding after commit to update your copy

2. use sharpsvn lib to automate the upgrade process

using the above approaches, you do not need to register on a remote server to update your copy manually.
