D'oh!  I've used Perforce too long.  Good call.

I think this does what you want more reliably:

find . -path '*/.svn' -prune -o -print0 -type f | xargs -0 -n 1 sed -i
-e 's/foo/bar/'

In addition your meta-data would now be incorrect so you'd be best to
check out a new tree.  Note that the -print or -print0 is required on
the RHS of the -o expression.  If no action is specified the default
one of -print will act on what matches either side and the .svn dirs
themselves match the LHS.
