(please stop top posting)

Ok... let me break it down:

Svn co --depth=empty http://myserver/svn/project project

Creates the working copy with no folders brought down.

Cd project

Changes you to the project folder as your present working directory.

svn up --depth=empty tags

Adds the tags folder to the working copy with the depth of empty.

Svn up trunk

Adds the trunk folder to the working copy with the depth of infinity.

From that point on you can do an

Svn up

From the root and it will NOT bring in any tags, it will update all of trunk.

If you want to add a tag you can do something like:

Cd project/tags
Svn up Version1

Which will give you that folder. Then updating from root will update this folder as well as trunk.
