When you’are working with Subversion, the situation might be familiar: You have checked-out some directories and want to check them in at another repository. Subversion is not happy to do that, it complains with a friendly reminder, that ‘your directory’ is already under version control. The proper way to do it, would probably be to export a clean directory tree, but sometimes this option is not available. Here’s a simple shell script to recursively remove all the hidden ‘.svn’ directories:

rm -rf `find . -type d -name .svn`

Wether it is better to use backticks or xargs is being discussed elsewhere.

Instruction from the TextMate site, this is the minimal info for installing TextMate Bundles mkdir -p /Library/Application\ Support/TextMate/Bundles cd /Library/Application\ Support/TextMate/Bundles svn co http://svn.textmate.org/trunk/Bundles/Haskell.tmbundle Update all bundles cd /Library/Application\ Support/TextMate/Bundles svn up *.tmbundle

Situation For whatever reasons, you want to move a directory from one svn repository to another. Problem Once in a repository, every folder gets an invisible .svn folder, where the svn info instored. Deleting them by hand can be tedious. A script might be cumbersome. Solution Use svn to export the folder. Exporting basically means getting rid of the .svn/ folders. http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.0/re10.html Usage
