[MAC] XBMC SVN Update Script
#1
Thumbs Up 
Hey guys,

I just wanted to share a script I wrote for myself to update to the latest version of XBMC for OS X without having to build it myself. This saves time and ensures that the builds actually work.

I set this up last week and included sshcs.com's excellent service. As xbmc.orc themselves now upload SVN builds, I integrated their service as well.

The script checks the version you have currently installed (works after the second run apparently) and then compares the two sources for a newer release.

It automatically extracts and opens the disk image and copies it to /Applications. Be warned though, it will delete any existing XBMC.app. If you are running XBMCHelper for remote control use, it will stop that too to be able to replace the old version.

To run it, open up a Terminal and enter:

sudo sh ./update-xbmc.sh

Enjoy!

Edit: I use wget to download the dmg from xbmc.org ... seems that it is not shipping with Mac OS X, so you might have to get that too and copy it to /usr/bin
