"Not to be *too* picky" :-), but I'd suggest even

 find . -name '.svn' -type d -exec rm -rf {} \;

(which saves trouble with files like .SVN and similar)

(Yes, I know, my version does *a lot* calls to rm. But, believe it or not,
I've had some problems of the shell saying "parameter list too long".
Yes, I know about "xargs -l". That would be
 find . -name '.svn' -type d -print0 | xargs -l200 -0 rm -rf
)

Phil
