Work around:
Just create your repository and import just your basic folder layout
(e.g. /trunk, /branches/, /tags) and check it out to a working copy.
Now copy all your files into that working copy and add/commit.
That's how I did it with a web site project for I needed to have the
dates preserved because of the upload routine.

You can't. Subversion doesn't preserve timestamps or permissions, other
than 'executable'). However, you can make the working copy files always
have the "last committed" timestamp by setting an option in your
run-time config file.
