[bash: Delete dot files recursively] #bash

find . -name ".*" -print

# I don't know the MAC OS, but that is how you find them all in most *nix environments.

find . -name ".*" -exec rm -rf {} \;

# to get rid of them... do the first find and make sure that list is what you want before you delete them all.

# The first "." means from your current directory. Also note the second ".*" can be changed to ".svn*" or any other more specific name; the syntax above just finds all hidden files, but you can be more selective. I use this all the time to remove all of the .svn directories in old code.
