Remove all directories recursively

Asked by swhitlow in Linux

Tags:

Hello. I have a directory structure with old .svn folders and files I need to get rid of (these files are hidden). I need to remove all of these files within a certain directory recursively.

The directories are like this:
/Directory1/
      .svn
       /Directory2/
            .svn

etc., etc.

What command do I need to run?
