Remove SVN folder using Powershell

I use subversion as my source code repository and it generates a svn folder. There are times where I would just like to remove all svn folders and files attached to this. Here is a simple one liner in powershell to do just that:

gci 'C:\_DevCode\CustomApps' -include _svn -recurse -force | foreach ($_) { del $_.fullname -recurse -force -whatif}

Three things:

1. -whatif will do the simulation, so please remove when you are reay to run
2. My folders for svn were setup as _svn while the default is actually .svn, so you may need to modify that
3. -force will make sure to get rid of hidden files

You can also use this same code for example to search your machine and get rid of thumbs.db!

gci 'C:\' -include thumbs.db -recurse -force | foreach ($_) { del $_.fullname -recurse -force -whatif}
