I'll let others comment on the idea of not using a source tarball, but
you can use 'svn export' to either download a tree without the .svn
directories (good for one-off downloads), or copy an existing working
copy while omitting the .svn directories. The latter option will let
you still incrementally update your working copy, and the local 'svn
export' takes care of cleaning things up.
