Capistrano, deploying from a local subversion repository

The recommended way of setting up deployment for a Ruby on Rails application is to use Capistrano. Unfortunately, by default your SVN repo must be accessible to the production server. Not good news if you've got your source code unaccessible to the outside world (behind a firewall, on your local laptop), like I do.

I did a little Googling for a solution to this problem and found this plugin. Thanks Wolfmans!
