Rob,

If the svn:keywords property is set when you ci, svn will update the
keywords in your working copy.
If you use the autoprops in your config file then everyfile that matches
the pattern will automatically have the svn:keywords property set on it
when you add it to the repo. The keyword is updated on co and update
only on your local wc.

HTH,
