I use eclipse galileo with subversive plugin or Tortoise SVN to do an update.

It is possible to schedule an auto-update (eg. every night)? If yes, is it possible to configure it to just update the non-conflicting files?

I use this command via a scheduled task - this assumes you have Silksvn installed (but any svn client will do this)

"C:\Program Files\SlikSvn\bin\svn" update --accept postpone d:\SourceCode >> c:\svn.log

It will only update files that aren't conflicting also, so no worry about that.

OR even, do it from TortoiseSVN using this command

C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin\TortoiseProc.exe /command:update /path:d:\sourcecode /closeonend:1

closeonend can be one of these

/closeonend:0 don't close the dialog automatically 

/closeonend:1 auto close if no errors 

/closeonend:2 auto close if no errors and conflicts 

/closeonend:3 auto close if no errors, conflicts and merges 

/closeonend:4 auto close if no errors, conflicts and merges for local operations
