svn-rev-diff-export is a handy bash snippet that allows you to export files changed between two revisions.

Usage

Options

-f, --rev-from revFROM
                    First revision number to compare.
-t, --rev-to revTO  Second revision number to compare.
-u, --url <path>    URL/path to repository.
-o, --output-dir <path>
                    The path to directory where the export will be placed.
                    Default: .

Thank you, @michal-m.
I added changes in line 65 to skip deleted files:

svn export $i $f || echo "File $i is not found, skipped";
