Thanks for the idea!  Looks like that might work.

Wouldn't a dry-run merge produce the same results ?  Isn't update a
specialised instance of merging ?

Something like
svn merge --revision base:head --dry-run
http://path/to/repos/path/to/wc/root

Hope that helps !

Not quite the same as a dry-run as it doesn't tell you when an update 
will create conflicts that need resolution (as "cvs -n update" does).  
Afaik, there is no way to get that information with the current svn CLI 
client.
