Recursively remove .svn directories from your project

Occasionally I find .svn directories in my old projects that are not in Subversion. The quickest way to recursively remove them is to run the following command:

{xtypo_code}find . -name .svn -print0 | xargs -0 rm -rf{/xtypo_code}You need to cd into your project directory before running it.

You can also run the command to quickly disconnect your project from Subversion.
