This command removes the SVN data from a folder.

find -name .svn -exec rm -rf {} \;

Creating a tag in SVN means that you copy the entire trunk to another folder in the ‘tags’ folder…

svn copy trunk/ tags/TAG_NAME

This is the method that I use to package a SVN Project. For CVS projects, the code is slightly different. Please note that the second line requires bash to work.

This is how I packaged nexty

svn checkout https://nexty.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/nexty
find nexty/ -name .svn -exec rm -rf {} \;
tar -czf nexty.tar.gz nexty/
rm -rf nexty/

[tags]svn,package,zip,compress,project,subversion[/tags]
