Just a word of advice to anybody using this approach - make sure to setup Apache(et al) to not serve .svn folders and files or someone will be able to download your code. I've always used a release shell script that does an svn export and just replaces the entire directory.

Or, better yet, don't put sensitive data in public web directories! Have your working copy somewhere else, and update your "svn update" script to also run an rsync with an --exclude=.svn to your web root.
