You don't have to do anything other than svn up. You can add the
SECRET_KEY define to wp-config.php if you want some extra protection
against someone creating a valid cookie if they somehow get at the
"secret" stored in the DB. That's optional, however.
define('SECRET_KEY', 'shhh, this is a secret');
