In the tools/examples folder of the subversion source distribution, there is
a file called svnput.c. You may be able to use it. It probably should be
used if you are really sure of what you are doing. Do read the warning at
the top of the file.
That said, given a choice, I will write a script to checkout, update and
commit (as pointed out by Sohail).
