find
find all those old CVS or .svn directories, and kill them:
to look:
#find . -type d -name “.svn”
to dump to a file
#find . -type d -name “.svn” > dump.txt
when you are ready:
#find . -type d -name “.svn” -exec rm -rf {} \;
Another way to wipe out everything:
#find . -name ‘*’ -print0 | xargs -0 rm
this means find here, the name of all, dont print it to stdout, then redirect the output to as an argument that the rm command will execute on.
