FWIW, this isn't pushing configuration. The puppetrun invocation sends a
message to puppetd on the client, which then pulls configuration from the
central server and acts on it.
So, it triggers the client pull on demand, but the client still pulls.

this is not what puppet specializes in. you can probably do it, but you will
almost certainly find it more productive to use some alternate tool to
implement this feature.

i am not quite sure how you envision puppet helping with that, but one
approach that doesn't require another tool is:
get the puppetrun facility working, or use some other mechanism, so you can
trigger client runs on demand.
use puppet to run the svn update process, then ensure that a symlink points to
the correct (typically, latest) release of your software. puppet can
additionally take other actions if it changes that symlink.
then, to update you need to ensure that the new version is available in svn
at a new top level path, update the puppet configuration to that version, and
the rest happens by magic.
More or less.
