Please re-read Bolek's post more carefully.  Here's the most important 
part, again:

So, when you did an "svn co", it created a directory in the current 
directory called mythtv.  Then, you should:

cd mythtv
svn up

Or, from the directory from which you did the "svn co":

svn up mythtv

Or, my personal favorite (because it prevents getting non-compatible 
versions of mythtv and mythplugins):

svn up mythtv mythplugins myththemes

But, since I like to keep around a file that tells me what SVN rev I 
have, when I updated, and what files were changed, I actually do:

( echo Last Updated: `date` |
  tee mythtv-update.log &&
   exit $PIPESTATUS ) &&
svn update mythtv mythplugins myththemes 2>&1 |
  tee -a mythtv-update.log
