FWIW, svk works right now without a .svn directory (actually the WC looks like
an export). It does require a local repository to support the mirror of the
main repos, but I must say it works like a charm. You also get smart merges for
free.

It requires the Perl bindings, which I believe OS X should support out of the
box. The svk web server is down at the moment, but the latest release is on CPAN:
