I'm not certain, from your description, exactly what you're trying to
do. Do you mean that your developers copy your output build tree, and
then checkout source into this same tree? Why not just reverse the
process: developers check out their tree once, and have a script they
can run that will copy in your build output?

The SVN equivalent to "Get Latest" is "Update", which works on an
already checked-out tree.
Export, will copy plain versions of files, but they cannot be commited
back to the repository.
It sounds like you'd benefit from reading the subversion book, and the
TortoiseSVN manual.

I think for a property to reflect down to a subdirectory you must have a
recursive checkout. TortoiseSVN couldn't magically connect sub
directories with a parent unless it was talking over the network (slow).
You may need to change the way you do some of your processes to complete
the transition svn, but having gone that road in our company I can say
it really is worth it in the end.
