This wouldn't BE work "outside the SVN directory". That is, the  
directory that I'm referring to as "~/Scripts" would be your SVN  
working directory. If yours is ~/vendors/3prim/src or C:\SL\WORK 
\UBERVEND or whatever, then you'd use that. You would load the LSL  
scripts directly from it, and save them back to it.

If you want the in-game inventory to be integrated into SVN that's a  
zillion times harder. The asset server itself doesn't have  
directories. Everything is identified by UUID, and editing a script  
changes its UUID, and every instance of a prim has its own copy of  
the code. Just having a standard way to save and restore text files  
would get you just as much control as having a virtual file system  
for your inventory, as well as being much more reliable and easier to  
manage.
