Neither git nor svn will help you on the atv unless you also have the complete xcode and macports build environment installed there too. Just asking this question leads me to think that you're not really asking the right question. What do you really want to do?

the skin i use, is hosted on git. and it is frequently updated, so i thought i can make things easier...

screenshots, well... let's omit this one, it's not that important.

svn - well new svn almost every day. once again, to make things easier Smile

wget is your friend. wget can also pull files from an svn given the file path.

So can this be done? If git was available on my appleTV, all I would have to do, to update Alaska, would be to type git pull from within the Alaska folder. It becomes trivial to cron up a nightly git pull for my Alaska then.

Thats the only reason I want git in my appleTV.
