Merging upstream changes without svn_load_dirs

Hi *, 

Just had to hack around inavailability of svn_load_dirs on my system. 
Quick and dirty hack to get the changes from swig-1.3.20 to swig-1.3.21
into my repository:

$ find swig-current \( -name .svn -prune -false \) -o -type f|xargs rm
  (removes all files apart from those in .svn)
$ mv swig-current SWIG-1.3.21
$ tar -xzf swig-1.3.21
  (goes into SWIG-1.3.21)
$ cd SWIG-1.3.21/
$ svn stat|grep '^?'|cut -b 8-|xargs svn add
$ svn stat|grep '^!'|cut -b 8-|xargs svn rm

then I exported and compared to the upstream tar before svn commit.

I know this is a quick hack but it worked, perhaps it is helpful for 
somebody or I'll get some hints to make it better ;)

Greetings
