Is there a way to setup SVN so it doesn't create those
hidden .svn folders within working folders? Deleting
them is not a problem, however it seem to defeat the purpose.
I would rather have them all in a separate place somewhere,
especially since they are not exactly tiny - usually
twice the size and many times the number of original source
files.
No, SVN requires these files to track changes.

To add something to what the other responders have said: When I make of zip of folders and folder trees that are under SVN management, I tell PKZip to *not* include the hidden files. --JohnH

It is and for quite some time now, but as they say "it's not ready until
it's ready" - unfortunately. I wish we could release it already, but
there are still some things we have to finish.

Based on svn and somewhat compatible with it. I believe you can use SVK
to checkout a working copy from an SVN repo.
