I just use rsync. Assuming I just downloaded and uncompressed a zip file called "updated-directory" with a folder inside called "some-dir- tree" whose contents need to replace the same folder in my SVN working copy ($ is prompt):
$ cd ~/Downloads/updated-directory/ $ rsync -a ./some-dir-tree/ ~/Documents/my-svn-working-copy/some-dir- tree/ Voila. Rsync is very smart about only copying the things that it needs to, which means that it doesn't overwrite .svn folders in your directory tree. The -a option is a shortcut for a slough of useful other options. If you want lots of info you could also run: $ rsync -av source target Which puts it in verbose mode. Note that the trailing slash on the directory can be important. With trailing slash means "copy the contents of this directory"; without means "copy this directory". More info is of course available by running "man rsync", but be warned the rsync manual page is LONG.
