Also, for a fresh install:

# svn co http://svn.automattic.com/wordpress/branches/2.0

Or for an existing svn checkout (this will update you to the latest 2.0 
branch version and also reset your checkout to point at the correct 
branch location):

# svn switch http://svn.automattic.com/wordpress/branches/2.0

Then on the next new 2.0 release it's as easy as:

# svn up

It may be worth it to get svn installed just to avoid the possible head 
trauma induced by making a 2000+ line unified diff work.  That is, if 
you're already using a command line.
