Remove .svn files from directory list

with 4 comments

One of my projects had an old .svn files from the ckeditor checkout.

The problem was that there are too many directories to remove it manually so after some searches and tries here is the command to clean this .svn files.

find ./ -name ".svn" | xargs rm -Rf

Have Fun
