Excuse me for jumping into the discussion :

I've a project in a subversion repository that (for now) can't be built
into a working copy, because the build process copies spurious .svn/*
files. On the other hand I don't want to do a complete export each time
one of the files is updated. So what do I do ? One of the solutions is
to rsync(1) my wc/ directory to a build/ directory with the command-line
option "--exclude .svn/". That's very fast and works well.
