To get a project copy without svn files, Error in SVN export

How can I checkout my svn repository without .svn files? I have tried svn export but I am getting an error showing I need to do a clean up process. I tried again after doing the clean up process, but the same error is showing again and again.

Please help.

First of all, use up-to-date Subversion client. You say "without .svn files" in plural, therefore I can guess that you use Subversion 1.6 or older client which working copy contains multiple .svn directories at the root of every directory. Beginning with Subversion 1.7, there is only on .svn directory at the root of the working copy.

If you want to get an export from a repository, use svn export command. As a result, you will simply download repository contents without getting a working copy.
