Thank you, that got me closer, but i'm still having issues. Here is a
modified command line that has the nasty side effect of svn rming "." -
the current directory.
svn st --depth=infinity | sed -n "s/^\! //p" |tr "\n\r" "\0" |
xargs -0 -n 1 --verbose
>svn st --depth=infinity | sed -n "s/^\! //p" | tr "\n\r" "\0"
| xargs -0 -n 1 --verbose -ixxx --no-run-if-empty svn rm \"xxx\"
svn rm "New Text Document.txt"
D New Text Document.txt
svn rm ""
D .
svn: Unable to lock 'BE'
svn rm "New Text Document (2).txt"
D New Text Document (2).txt
svn rm ""
D .
svn: Unable to lock 'BE'
I'm not sure where the empty lines are coming from. Maybe some
non-printable character? And svn just reinterprets it to mean "."?

P.S. BE is a folder under the images folder, which is under the current
folder.
