I'm not using SVN to maintain production file `in situ`. Files exist
at 3 different places: in production (on the server), in the
repository, and in my working copy. When I'm working on a server, I
make changes in various files, or create new ones, I wait few hours or
few days to make sure everything works fine, then I don't always
remember what files have changed. Comparing manually the production
directory tree and the working copy is a very painful and long
process. I want to make that automatic.

At this exact moment, your best bet is probably to use something like ExpanDrive to mount your remote server via ssh as a file system; then you can use "Find Differences" to compare your local directory with the server. Do note that MacFUSE+ssh (of which ExpanDrive is one implementation) will perform very slowly; but for this purpose it should serve.

I think that the points about changing your workflow are well made, since the way you've described it today, your workflow is calculated to drive you nuts, but that's really a different issue. :-)

Someday I'll look back on all this and laugh... until they sedate me.
