# SVN Export Script
# 
# Given an SVN URL and local directory path, this script copies all files from
# SVN into the specified local directory.
#
# Uses SharpSVN DLL v1.7002.1998 (Documentation : http://docs.sharpsvn.net/current/)
#
# Takes two command line arguments, an SVN URL and a local directory path.
