Did you install Subversion, available from http://
subversion.tigris.org/ ? It provides the svn and svnadmin command
line programs, among other things.

If you want to know what files were affected by the revision, you
would call "svnlook changed" and pass it the repository location and
the revision.

Now... Why do you want to copy files manually? Perhaps there's a
better way to accomplish your goal. Perhaps you can simply "svn
update" a working copy on your server after every commit. Then you
don't have to worry about what changed, and instead you let
Subversion handle it for you. Or if that doesn't suit you, maybe you
can explain your use case and we can help find a good solution.
