cd to/dir/where/you/want/to/start
find . -type d -name '.svn' -print -exec rm -rf {} \;
- Use find, which does recursion
- in the current directory .
- filetype is directory
- filename is .svn
- print what matched up to this point (the .svn dirs)
- exec the command
rm -rf (thing found from find). the {} is a placeholder for the entity found
- the ; tells find that the command for exec is done. Since the shell also has an idea of what ; is, you need to escape it with \ so that the shell doesn’t do anything special with it, and just passes to find
