Oh! Then you probably want an export, not a working copy. An export
will be less than half the size of a working copy. You can still have
a server-side working copy that gets "svn update"d periodically or
via post-commit, but to make the tarball, you first "svn export" from
that working copy to another directory and tar up that new directory.

As someone else said, ViewVC already has this feature. Other web-
based repo browsers may offer it as well.
