In subversion the 'svn checkout' and 'svn update' operations are the
same after the initial invokation.  The only difference is that one
gets the URL from the command line and the other gets the URL from the
working copy.  You can avoid worrying about one or the other and
*always* do a checkout operation.  That will work fine if the is an
existing working copy already.  Always doing an 'svn checkout' avoids
the problem nicely.

Note that if one is checking out from a tag (which is supposed to represent an immutable "directory"), one can use "svn export" instead and avoid creating all the unneeded metadata subdirectories.
