There are different sort of tools to track changes of database structure.
a very good one is mysql Workbench : http://www.mysql.com/products/workbench/
you can modelize your db with this tool to be able to update it with the sychronisation.
An other type of tool that my be perfect for svn : PHP Migrations
http://code.google.com/p/mysql-php-migrations/
With this tool you create different scripts : 001_initial.php 002_changes.php for example.
and when you execute the tool, it will apply the files that were not applied to make your schema up to date.
I Hope this helps you.
