I don’t care if this is a nerdy post or if it’s duplicated all over the internet. I just want to put it out there for reference. Here’s the linux/unix/cygwin code for recursively removing subversion directories.

rm -rf `find . -name .svn`

I found the example here, but you can never have too much duplicate content floating around the internet.
