Well you could just use rsync with svn ;)

That is cool, I didn't know about that.

Other items I find interesting about SVN:

1. It has an api that can be written to, that may or may not be helpful
to buildfarm.

2. It has mindshare. I know that isn't a big deal to a lot of people
here, but the it is becoming the new cvs. There are others of course
(like monotone) but most projects I know are moving from cvs to svn or
starting with svn.
