Christian, Olaf, Mark, Ernst - thanks so much for your answers, I will
evaluate these various approaches on Monday (i have to put this
project aside until then, and work on something else for a different
client) and let you know what worked best.

Quoting Christian Eva <[email protected]>:
Hi,
I would use the -mtime option in find to update all the recent
changes:
find foo -type f -mtime -3 | grep -v .svn | cpio -pmuvd <target-dir>
where -3 means changes in the last 3 days.
Regards

From the directory that contains the changed foo directory:
find foo -type f | sed '/\.svn/d' \
| while read name; do cp "$name" target-dir/"$name"; done
where target-dir is the directory in your svn working copy that holds
foo. Filenames with spaces will be handled correctly. Should there be
any .svn stuff in the changed foo directory, it will be ignored.
Hope this helps,
