Developing on an exported copy is not such a good idea. That's because you 
cannot check it in afterwards as is, add extra files, trace which extra files 
were added to the working copy, etc. Developing is harder because the 
directory tree you're working with is not a working copy, and you cannot use 
the "svn" commands to manipulate it.
