You may want to take a look at the Get task. It's part of the core tasks available with ant. It gets a file from an url.

Subject: Trying to use Ant and CVS for clean build
I'm trying to use Ant to retrieve the source files from CVS.
I'm getting an error message which I don't understand.
I'm just learning to use Ant but I already see the need to be able to debug
it. Anyone know of a good reference? The simple examples in the text
books don't cover the snafus.
Question 2. Does anyone have an Ant build that retrieves source
from a CVS repository on a web server? Would you mind sharing it?
Thanks.
