assets question

hi all

want to know if this is possible

one of our web sites has about 200 G of assets that it serves up to
the world. i would like to ask our dev folks to start using svn. but
is there any way i can import the site into svn without adding all
those assets, is there a flag something along the line of rsync --
exclude "image.jpg" --exclude "asstes" etc.

if not what are my options.
