scripting - Automatic confirmation of deletion in powershell

Question

I'm running the following command:

get-childitem C:emp -exclude *.svn-base,".svn" -recurse | foreach ($_) {remove-item $_.fullname}

Which prompts me very frequently like this:

Confirm
The item at C:empfad has children and the Recurse parameter was not specified. If you continue,
all children will be removed with the item. Are you sure you want to continue?
[Y] Yes  [A] Yes to All  [N] No  [L] No to All  [S] Suspend  [?] Help (default is "Y"): 

How can I have it automatically set to "A"?

Try using the -Force parameter on Remove-Item.
