just FYI:

Since the timestamp of a revision is stored as an unversioned, modifiable property of the revision (see the section called “Properties”), revision timestamps can be changed to represent complete falsifications of true chronology, or even removed altogether. Subversion's ability to correctly convert revision dates into real revision numbers depends on revision datestamps maintaining a sequential ordering—the younger the revision, the younger its timestamp. If this ordering isn't maintained, you will likely find that trying to use dates to specify revision ranges in your repository doesn't always return the data you might have expected.
...and this... (on the same page)
Is Subversion a Day Early?
If you specify a single date as a revision without specifying a time of day (for example 2006-11-27), you may think that Subversion should give you the last revision that took place on the 27th of November. Instead, you'll get back a revision from the 26th, or even earlier. Remember that Subversion will find the most recent revision of the repository as of the date you give. If you give a date without a timestamp, such as 2006-11-27, Subversion assumes a time of 00:00:00, so looking for the most recent revision won't return anything on the 27th.
If you want to include the 27th in your search, you can either specify the 27th with the time ({"2006-11-27 23:59"}), or just specify the next day ({2006-11-28}).
so, I believe, using time/date stamps is not the best and most reliable approach to make a decision for a build nor it will correctly update your working space.
