Looks reasonable, but how do you run this script without a working copy?  It would be better if this script didn't have any dependencies so folks could just run it.  Maybe it would be better as a shell script?

This script doesn't actually do the checkout step. It assumes that you did the checkout step. I suppose we could build the checkout step into the script as well. I'd still prefer to keep it a python script, but there's no need for it to depend on webkipy.

Shell scripting makes me grumpy and noone wants that. :)
