wcfind

["David M. Lee" <le...@yahoo.com>]

I've found wcgrep so useful, I've implemented a similar script for find.

I hope someone else will also find this useful.  I wouldn't mind if someone
put it in the Subversion contrib directory.

Enjoy!

# Inspired by wcgrep, useful for running find within a working copy.
# Should behave exactly as find does, except that this ignores any 
# .svn directories (along with their contents).
#
# WCFIND_FIND  Controls what command is used for the 'find' command.
#              Defaults to 'find'

WCFIND_FIND=${WCFIND_FIND:-find}

#
# Separate the path arguments from the expression.
# Use an array so paths with spaces can be passed to find as a 
# single word.
#
while test $# -gt 0; do
    if test "${1:0:1}" = "-"; then
	# we found an expression, no more paths
	break;
    elif test "$1" = "("; then
	# parenthesis are expressions
	break;
    else
	# collect the path into the path array
	pathargs=("${pathargs[@]}" "$1")
	shift 1
    fi
done

# '-true' prevents errors in case no expression is given
# '-not -name .svn' removes .svn from the implicit -print

"$WCFIND_FIND" "${pathargs[@]}" \
    "(" -name .svn -prune -o "(" -true "$@" ")" ")" -not -name .svn
