I've got a streamlined process for CVS that works like a champ. I'm not thrilled about making the swap, but given some info I suppose I can do it. There is a README for CVS but not for SVN in the Xastir directory.

I'm not sure how the author does it, but DX Spider can be updated (at least for downloading updates) using either CVS or GIT.  I switched to GIT when I migrated it to my Sheevaplug.

Checking with Google it appears that git has CVS server emulation, in which case it might be an easier transition than subversion.
