The command "svn export" exports a clean source tree - without revision control information. Basically a clean snapshot of the revision you export, intended as a sourcecode release version snapshot. It expects to be exporting to a clean directory which is why you need to force it to overwrite existing files. To "update" a source tree you need the revision information for svn to test what has changed, which you get with svn checkout and svn update
