People ask for this feature practically every week on the mailing
list. Perhaps someone has already written a script to do this for you.

If that's all you want to do, there are better ways to do it. For
example, rsync is designed exactly for this purpose: given two
directories, which are either on the same machine or on different
machines, it synchronizes them, copying any necessary changes from
one to the other. Come to think of it, that's exactly what a
Subversion working copy is designed to do too, so if you can have a
working copy of your project on your server, all you need to do is
"svn up" it to get the latest version.
