What probably would be nice is a 'svn export' command that would only
export files that have changed since a certain revision. That would
be basically equivalent to 'rsync -avc --delete' but exporting
directly from the repository.

Than it would be easy to write a wrapper around it that stores the
actual revision number somewhere after a successfull export.

This would be very usefull everywhere where a large amount of data is
exported regularly. There a full export just because one file has
changed is a waste of resources and you might not want to keep all the
svn meta data araound.
