svn_update — Update working copy

### Description

svn_update(string `$path`, int `$revno` = SVN_REVISION_HEAD, bool `$recurse` = `true`): int

Update working copy at `path` to revision `revno`. If `recurse` is true, directories will be recursively updated.

### Parameters

`path`
  Path to local working copy.

  > Note: Relative paths will be resolved as if the current working directory was the one that contains the PHP binary. To use the calling script's working directory, use realpath() or dirname(__FILE__).

`revno`
  Revision number to update to, default is `SVN_REVISION_HEAD`.
`recurse`
  Whether or not to recursively update directories.

### Return Values

Returns new revision number on success, returns `false` on failure.
