Update All of the SVN Version Controlled Projects in a Directory (See related posts)

I have all of my projects in a directory like ~/PROJECTS. Each day when I come to work, I want to ensure that everything on my workstation is up to date. Rather than cd into each directory and issue "svn update" by hand, I kludged the following shell script together. Comments appreciated.


 for X in `find . -maxdepth 2 -type d -name ".svn" | cut -d / -f 2`; do svn update ./$X; done

You might want to checkout the svn:externals property.

Set the property for your toplevel directory (~/PROJECTS in your case) and a simple: 'svn update' will update all your projects.
