I like to print my drafts with big fonts and small margins (i do this in memoir style in a single chapter), but the \include comand creates a page break. Is there a way to avoid this and have section after section continuously?

One of the (IMO) best ways to fix something like this is to make the space above \part and \chapter entries flexible, that usually solves the problem. Otherwise use the
\addtocontents{toc}{\protect\newpage}
\part{title}
Not sure what you mean by "but I would prefer a solution, that avoid such a page break in the header"
\setlength{\cftbeforepartskip}{2.25em plus 0.5em minus 0.5em}
% default is 1em plus 0pt
\setlength{\cftbeforechapterskip}{1.0em plus 0.5em minus 0.25em}
% default is 1em plus 0pt
One way is to relax \clearpage, such that is doing nothing when called.
Other possibilities (not in here): Redefine the commands \listoftables etc. and remove the \clearpage in there or use etoolbox package in order to patch them or the answer given in the link in LariFaRi's comment.
Of course, the content lists will not fit on one page if there are a lot entries in them.
\documentclass[paper=a4,12pt]{scrreprt}
\usepackage{listings}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\begin{document}
\let\LaTeXStandardClearpage\clearpage
\let\clearpage\relax % Do nothing when a \clearpage command appears
\listoffigures
\listoftables
\lstlistoflistings
\let\clearpage\LaTeXStandardClearpage % Return to the old definition
\chapter{First}
\begin{figure}
\caption{Dummy figure}
\end{figure}
\newpage
\begin{table}
\caption{Dummy table}
\end{table}
\chapter{Second}
\section{First}
\begin{lstlisting}[language=C, caption={Hello World in C}]
#include <stdio.h>
\int main( void )
{
printf("Hello World\n");
return(0);
}
\end{lstlisting}
\end{document}

It seems that you have your sections in extra files. First of all, this is not required by (La)TeX, you can have it all in one file if you want. (I imagine some people just get this taught from a template).
The
\includecommand adds the page break by design and is intended for chapters which will start a new page anyway. The page break is required to make\includeonlywork properly, e.g. insert the correct page numbers after any skipped chapter. If you simply want to insert your external files use the\inputmacro instead. It does not add a line break. See When should I use \input vs. \include? for a description of the differences between these two macros.However, if you want to still use
\includeonlyyou are in trouble. In this case, see the question Include without pagebreak and its proposed solutions.
