I did something sounding similar the other day. I wanted to have
deploy:cold go ahead and symlink into /etc/mongrel_cluster from the
./app/current/config/{#rails_env}.cluster.yml location. I did the
same thing for enabling the apache config using "a2ensite
#{app_domain}" in conjunction with :before_cold call in the :deploy
namespace.

I do an svn export locally and copy the tgz file to the server.
(export would not include .svn directories).
There also is a pre-defined variable to exclude that path as well
set :copy_exclude, ['.svn']

Look into a :before_symlink command that will copy uploaded files (ie:
avatars, user images, etc) into the ./app/shared/ folder.
