How to use Terminal to delete all .svn folders recursively?

What command can I type into the Terminal so that I can delete all .svn folders within a folder (and from all subdirectories) but not delete anything else?

cd to/dir/where/you/want/to/start
find . -type d -name '.svn' -print -exec rm -rf {} \;

• Use find, which does recursion
• in the current directory .
• filetype is directory
• filename is .svn
• print what matched up to this point (the .svn dirs)
• exec the command rm -rf (thing found from find). the {} is a placeholder for the entity found
• the ; tells find that the command for exec is done. Since the shell also has an idea of what ; is, you need to escape it with \ so that the shell doesn't do anything special with it, and just passes to find
