Can you explain why you want this? There may be better ways to achieve this
than using export.

Looks like you want to take only the modified files to synchronise a non
versioned file tree elsewhere. If that is the case, why not try to use a
second working copy, which allows you to commit the changes in one place
and update at the other location.

Another way is to use a file copy tool that detects the differences between
a source file tree and a destination file tree.

Maybe (x)copy can do this for you. I have created some automated deployment
scripts for my own web site, but that is Linux based. Maybe the explanation
I wrote about it can help you, see

Jean-Marc.
