I'm a bit confused on this module....

Basically, I'm looking for a way to handle database changes in subversion. Does this module do what I'm after or is it more for deploying staging sites to production sites?

Autopilot is intended to help you move code, settings, and anything else from one server to another. It automates the process of checking out your code, updating database tables, inserting content, and anything else that you need to do during deployment.

It doesn't move your database into subversion, but you can use the Macro module (part of Devel) to record your changes as you make them, then check the resulting macros into svn. When you create your build script in Autopilot, you can instruct it to check out those macros and run them.
