What a mess! I just searched my Mac system amd found only 4: plugins/org.apache.forrest.plugin.input.PhotoGallery/src/documentation/content/xdocs/images/gallery/demo/Thumbs.db plugins/org.apache.forrest.plugin.input.PhotoGallery/src/documentation/content/xdocs/images/gallery/Thumbs.db site-author/work/svn-deploy/forrest-docs/pluginDocs/plugins_0_80/org.apache.forrest.plugin.internal.dispatcher/skin/images/Thumbs.db whiteboard/plugins/org.apache.forrest.themes.core/themes/pelt/images/Thumbs.db So they would all be incorrectly under version control. > But how do I delete them all in one from SVN? > svn del -R Thumbs.db does not work, as there is not recursive > command for svn delete, how stupid is that! It might be deliberate. If it were so, then when using the 'svn delete [URL]' method the committer could accidently delete the whole repository. > Anyway, any ideas on the best way to do this, I am also sure that > not all 52 will be under version control anyway. In fact none should > be because I never explicitly added them, but anyway. Other committers did. Use e.g. svn log whiteboard/plugins/org.apache.forrest.themes.core/themes/pelt/images/Thumbs.db to see. -David
