Delete the folder. That's all there is to it. Checking out leaves no
mark on the repository. If you have locked any files you should unlock
them first of course.

As above. But generally in Subversion you keep your local working copy
for as long as you are working on the project.

Export. Either export from an existing working copy, or Use repo browser
to locate the repository and export directly into a local folder without
creating a working copy at all.
