SVN tags: How not to update/checkout them?

In many projects, I check out the complete repository and have then the standard directory structure:

project/
    branches/
    tags/
    trunk/

If I do an svn up project, it's all fine with the branches and trunk folders, but, of course, the tags folder is updated, too, and filled with (mostly) lots of tagged versions that are of no value for my work and only occupy disk space.

How can I except the tags folder from an svn update? Especially, how can I do this locally only, that is, without committing that back to the repository, as a solution with the svn:ignore keyword would do?

To update only specific folder pass them to the svn update command.

svn update project/branches project/trunk
