I don't believe there is a command, it's difficult to get an accurate answer
as each operating system has different overheads. If you are on unix then you
could try this one liner, just replace SVNURL with the repository url you'd
like to guess the size of.

svn ls -v -R SVNURL | perl -e 'my $total = 0; while(<>) { if( /^(?:\s+\S+)
{2}\s+(\d+)/ ) { $total += $1; } } my $svntotal = $total * 3; print "Total
file size: $total bytes, estimated checkout size $svntotal bytes\n";'

I'm estimating at least three times the size for the checkout (this is with a
1.5 client) based on one repository I have available but I had originally
guessed at twice the size plus a little for the administration directories
and found it way off. The total bytes will be off as well though as this does
not take into account filesystem overheads. In my test case the full checkout
was around 884mb as measured by du -bs, deleting the .svn directories
resulted in a size of 306mb yet summing up all the file sizes is 270mb
according to the script.
