Restore Subversion Properties

I thought it would be easy, but I'm afraid. I want to recursively manage Subversion properties, so the directory and all the files and directories that it contains.

In this particular case, I am trying to remove certain properties recursively, but I am interested in the general pattern.

Does Subversion provide a tool for this (e.g. svn propdel -R )? I could not find a single document. If not, what will be the easiest way for shell script to get out of this?

FYI : maximum OS X, subversion 1.6.x.

According to svn help propdel it supports the -R switch:

  Valid options:
   -R [--recursive]: descend recursively, same as --depth = infinity
+7
source

From the certificate (abridged to the corresponding part):

svn help propdel

 ... Valid options: -q [--quiet] : print nothing, or only summary information -R [--recursive] : descend recursively, same as --depth=infinity --depth ARG : limit operation by depth ARG ('empty', 'files',

...

Then yes, you can use -R or --recursive .

So this should work:

 svn propdel svn:externals . -R

source
