Question

I want to enable monitoring of remote read-only subversion for commit changes and do “svn update” immediately. How i can do this ?

Maybe some script with wget of svn log page, cut(grep) everything except first line with revision, compare number with local copy(is there an svn command that will display local rev number?) and it it is not equal then run “svn update” and set this script to run every minute ?

SVN: http://code.google.com/p/miranda/source/list

This will do the trick:

#! /bin/bash

REMOTE_REPO="http://miranda.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/"
LOCAL_REPO="/lib/svn/miranda/"

REMOTE_REV=`svn info $REMOTE_REPO | grep '^Revision:' | awk '{print $2}'`
LOCAL_REV=`svn info $LOCAL_REPO | grep '^Revision:' | awk '{print $2}'`

if [ $REMOTE_REV -eq $LOCAL_REV ]; then
exit 0;
else
# Run your commands here.
cd $LOCAL_REPO
svn up
fi
