I recently had to fix Magento after a hung update happened. After looking around online I found that Magento can be update directly from the command line. This is a guide for doing so. 

 * Change into the magento install directory: 
 <pre> 
 cd /usr/local/www/sites/magento.example.com 
 </pre> 

 * Set the maintenance.flag file: 
 <pre> 
 touch /usr/local/www/sites/magento.example.com/maintenance.flag 
 </pre> 

 * Show the list of installed Magento packages: 
 <pre> 
 sudo -u www sh /usr/local/www/sites/magento.example.com/mage list-installed 
 </pre> 

 * Force the reinstallation of the Mage_All_Latest package: 
 <pre> 
 sudo -u www sh /usr/local/www/sites/magento.example.com/mage install http://connect20.magentocommerce.com/community Mage_All_Latest --force 
 </pre> 

 * Upgrade any other packages: 
 <pre> 
 sudo -u www sh /usr/local/www/sites/magento.example.com/mage upgrade-all --force 
 </pre> 

 * Reindex everything: 
 <pre> 
 php shell/indexer.php reindexall 
 </pre> 

 * Set the correct permissions: 
 <pre> 
 chmod -R 644 /usr/local/www/sites/magento.example.com/* 
 find /usr/local/www/sites/magento.example.com -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \; 
 chmod 550 /usr/local/www/sites/magento.example.com/mage 
 </pre> 

 * Flush all cache and sessions: 
 <pre> 
 rm -rf /usr/local/www/sites/magento.example.com/var/{cache,session}/* 
 </pre> 

 * Remove the maintenance.flag file: 
 <pre> 
 rm /usr/local/www/sites/magento.example.com/maintenance.flag 
 </pre>
