For efficiency reasons the .svn dirs are stripped from the snapshots  
(they become ~2½ times bigger if they are included).

Also, the .svn dirs does not equal the rcs files in CVS. The rcs (,v)  
files in CVS contains all revisions of the files which the .svn dirs  
does not. The closes you'll get is by downloading the entier  
repository via rsync (SF have instructions how to do that), but it  
isn't useful for most people.
