My blog software, WordPress, has been nagging me to upgrade it for a few days now. It's normally an easy process: go to the website, download the tar archive, untar into a temporary directory, then cp -a the files into my blog's Apache virtual host directory.

However, Aq noticed a slightly easier way: use Subversion. Now I can upgrade WordPress with a simple svn switch command, followed by a click on a database upgrade script. Much, much easier.
