What functionality are you proposing exactly? The above sample code _deletes_
files not under source control, which is (IMNSHO) _never_ something that the svn
client should support, at least without --force, and a confirmation prompt that
requires typing a random 33 character string. ;)

If you just want to check if you have files that are not checked in, 'svn
status' works just fine, thanks! I'm confused what you want...
