I'm trying to delete all .class and .csv.gz files from my svn directory and all subdirectories. Can anyone tell me how to do it automatically with a command ? I have RabbitSVN installed on my Ubuntu.

The svn command for removing a file is: svn delete fileName

You can delete all the relevant files from your local system with:

find /path/to/dir -type f \( -name "*.class" -o -name '*.csv.gz' \) -delete

If you then commit the changes, the remote files should also be removed. Alternatively, you can run svn delete on each of the files:

find /path/to/dir -type f \( -name "*.class" -o -name '*.csv.gz' \) -exec svn delete {} \;

You could probably also just do this directly:

shopt -s globstar
svn delete **/*.class **/*.csv.gz
