That shouldn't affect the repository, though, which is only interested
in the unpacked version.
There's also the svn-buildpackage package which is an svn version of
cvs-buildpackage, which could be useful. And a really nice script
which Joey Hess sent to a list a little while back for submitting
changes to the repo and tagging for releases. The SVN docs are also
available in /usr/share/doc/subversion/book/svn-book.html in the
subversion package. All you need to know :)
I'll enquire about setting up a repository on svn.debian.org.
