Basically I tried to archive a folder with .svn subfolders. I definitely want to exclude them from the archive. But when I tried:
rar a -r -x.svn myarchive
It did not exclude any .svn folders in second or deeper level of folder hierarchy.
Now the correct way is:
rar a -r -x.svn -x*/.svn -x*/.svn/* -x*/anotherSubFolder -x*/anotherSubFolder/* myarchive
It will exclude all folder and subfolders with name .svn or anotherSubFolder.
Happy Year 2009!

For FWIW:
On Microsoft Windows the switches need BACKSLAHES as separators:
-x.svn -x*\.svn -x*\.svn\*
Thanks!
