This snippet removes all missing files, including those that have spaces in their paths: svn status | sed -Ee '/^!/!d' -e 's/^! *(.*)/"\1"/g' | xargs -L1 svn rm

How about something convulted like this? svn status | sed -e '/^!/!d' -e 's/^! *//' | tr '\n' '\0' | xargs --null -i -t svn rm {}

Doesn't work with file paths with whitespace.

@echo off
:: This script deletes files from svn that are missing in the specified working copy.

if "%1"=="" (
  echo usage: %0 workingCopy
  exit /b
)

for /f "usebackq tokens=1*" %%a in (`svn status %1`) do (
  if "%%a"=="!" (
    echo svn delete "%%b"
    svn delete "%%b"
  )  
)

A couple newline characters got lost when posting. Not sure how to fix, but you get the idea. Sorry for the repost.

Hello, I like the Unix script above, but at work I'm forced into a Windows environment. For others stuck in a Windows environment, I hope the following will be useful. (I'm not experienced with Windows batch scripting, but the following worked for me on Windows XP.) @echo off :: This script deletes files from svn that are missing in the specified working copy. if "%1"=="" ( echo usage: %0 workingCopy exit /b ) for /f "usebackq tokens=1*" %%a in (`svn status %1`) do ( if "%%a"=="!" ( echo svn delete "%%b" svn delete "%%b" ) )
