bash - svn update of directory with muliply repositories checkouts -

i have development directory contains checkouts svn repositories stays in non svn directories. update of dirs being in svns.

dir structure similar 1 below:

how solve issue?

i came "brute force" solution, not intelligent:

for in `find . -mindepth 1 -maxdepth 3 -type d | grep -v .svn`; svn $i; done 

it nice have sth have:

svn --recursive update development_dir. 

unfortunately, svn not support feature. can do, however, optimize command eliminating loop , piping grep. command should this:

find . -mindepth 1 -maxdepth 3 -name "*.svn" -type d -exec svn {}/.. \; 

to make life easier, can set bash alias, example:

alias svn_up_recursive='find . -mindepth 1 \ -maxdepth 3 -name "*.svn" -type d -exec svn {}/.. \;' 

... , invoke whole script svn_up_recursive command. or create shell script , put bin directory. prefer shell scripts easier support, extend them, process command line arguments etcetera.
