Add all non-versioned controlled files to the subversion repository

Just wrote a small one-liner to add all non-version controlled files in the current path and down to a subversion repository without any unecessary warning messages or errors.

svn st | \
  grep -E "^\?" | \
  sed -e s/^\?\\s*//g | \
  sed -e s/\\s/\\\\\ /g | \
  xargs -I{} svn add {}

I have only tested this on Cygwin so far, but it should work fine on Linux and Mac OS X.

svn sta | egrep '^\?' | awk '{print $2}' | xargs svn add

The reason for the extra sed is because I've been dealing with filenames that have spaces in them. Doing a plain awk '{print $2}' will ignore everything after the first space in the filename.
