You can do this easier by doing a "cvs export" to get a fresh copy of 
the sources without the CVS control directories, or you can "cvs release 
-e" to use CVS to release the control directories from your current sandbox.

To directly answer your question, I use filezilla myself.  I don't know 
if it can exclude directories like you're looking to.
