Java Thinking

I don't know how it happened, but my local working copy got locked. This meant that every time I tried to commit, I got a 'working copy is locked' error. The solution was easy, after I found a reference in the FAQ : svn cleanup <directory>

I recently needed to clean up and remove all of the svn files in a directory structure. I found the answer here , a simple linux command line to recursively delete .svn folders: find . -name ".svn" -print0 | xargs -0 rm -Rf
