What's this?
commandlinefu.com is the place to record those command-line gems that you return to again and again.
Delete that bloated snippets file you've been using and share your personal repository with the world. That way others can gain from your CLI wisdom and you from theirs too. All commands can be commented on, discussed and voted up or down.
If you have a new feature suggestion or find a bug, please get in touch via http://commandlinefu.uservoice.com/
Get involved!
You can sign-in using OpenID credentials, or register a traditional username and password.
First-time OpenID users will be automatically assigned a username which can be changed after signing in.

You can use this command to delete CVS/svn folders on given project.
svn st | cut -c 9- | parallel -X tar -czvf ../backup.tgz
-2
xargs deals badly with special characters (such as space, ' and "). In this case if you have a file called '12" record'.
Parallel https://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/parallel/ does not have this problem.
Both solutions work bad if the number of files is more than the allowed line length of the shell.
svn log -q | grep -v "^-" | cut -d "|" -f 2 | sort -u
xdg-open $(svn info | sed -n '/URL:/s/URL: //p')
lynx -dump -nolist http://whatthecommit.com/|sed -n 2p

svn-clean
-3
Wipes out unversioned files from SVN working copy. Much safer to run than your own incantations.
I find svn-clean especially useful for when "svn revert -R ." won't undo the many merged in new files. Manually rm'ing all the files with a status of '?' would be a hassle.
In debian at least, the svn-clean command comes with the subversion-tools package, otherwise you get the perl script with "svn export
tar --exclude='.svn' -c -f /path/to/file.tar /path/to/directory
