Delete svn directories Post on Jan 09, 2009
Every once in a while we find the need to hack out a bunch of .svn directories, a good example is borrowing a javascript plugin (with 500 nested folders) from a project already committed to a subversion repository. It can be (and really, is) quite painful to go through and remove all those little .svn folders so you can potentially commit the newly-coveted javascript morsel into your new project (if this sounds hackish, it probably is, there must be a better way).
My new favorite hack
rm -rf `find . -type d -name .svn`
Found it here.
Cheers
