Re: Deadlock on Post-Commit Script

That's odd since running svn update from the command-line on the server
doesn't prompt for anything. Might this be because it's in a commit script?

I also noticed that svn export works just as well; it seems to properly
export the new HEAD from the repository, and it will overwrite old files
it the "--force" directive is used. Is svn export a save way to do this,
since I will never commit from this working copy?
