You could take a look at Docu: IzzySoft Release Framework : Software Release Made Easy -- that's what I use for my projects. It pulls the code from various sources (including SVN, CVS, filesystem via cp), generates .tar.gz, .deb, .rpm, handles the changelog, uploads to the target server(s) via scp, ftp, rsync... It may require a little time for the initial setup -- but once that is done, releasing a new version of your programm is as easy as relman MyProg 1.2.3 (where 1.2.3 is the version number to give to the release, as used for packaging). It will then ask for confirmation -- and shortly thereafter (depending on your project), all the files are on the server(s).

You're welcome! All the parts of it are documented -- but if there are questions left, just go ahead and ask. – Izzy – 2012-07-19T16:17:26.460
1I just notice I forgot the disclosure: I'm the dev of said framework, and author of the linked article. Though that might have been guessed from the name and my nick already, it's custom to explicitly state it. Better late than never ;) – Izzy – 2014-03-10T13:16:02.883
