I don't think svn has a feature for this. I think it keeps the old unversioned folders because they are not empty: the unversionned .classpath, .settings, .project files are still there and svn does not want to remove such unversioned files by default. git has a rather dangerous "git clean" command to erase all unversioned files that would do. For svn, I would just rm the 10 or so folders manually or just checkout a new sandbox as Fabian suggests. -- Olivier http://twitter.com/ogrisel - http://github.com/ogrisel
