C:\repo\fpc>svn status | grep '^?' | awk '{ print $2 }' | xargs rm -rf 'awk' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. And even besides the multiplatform angle, a simple rm -rf buildwin32 would only delete one targets build files, and the source dir could be on a different fs etc. And there is not really a big disadvantage to having builddirs. (note I only meant meant the practice of having build dirs as option, not configure or anything else related to configure. A BUILD=../build to current make so to say) > This ensures a pristine copy ? > > Or you can do an > > svn export > > from an already checked-out copy. This leaves you with a pristine copy too. That's what I did when I still had a slow link. Still related to checkout size though. _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
