If we really could make your AV to stop checking the svn dirs, you
could basically uninstall it right away. Because if we can stop it,
viruses can too, and the whole AV would be completely useless. In
fact, it would be worse than useless, because users still would think
they're protected and behave not as cautious as they would otherwise.
