That's not a Python question, more a Django question or a system-admin question. You'd be better off using the correct mailing list for that. That said, you should be fine, providing you re-sync the databases every time you 'svn up', to keep your model schema's in the database in sync (you can use fixtures to sync data in the database). Also the settings files may differ on the server or the local machines; it's best to keep those out of SVN, or have a little if-else clause in settings.py that takes care server-dependent settings. Otherwise, all your code can (and should) be machine/server agnostic, and thus easily transportable.
