SVN Won't Cleanup Locked Dir
SVN tells me that my directory is locked and will not do updates.
When I attempt to do an svn cleanup I get a message and then it creates an
empty tmp file:
svn cleanup includes/
svn: In directory 'includes'
svn: Can't copy 'includes/.svn/tmp/text-base/header.php.svn-base'
to 'includes/header.php.tmp': No such file or directory
When I repeat the command it creates another file like:
header.php.2.tmp
header.php.3.tmp
header.php.4.tmp
header.php.5.tmp
...
svn status
? header.php.2.tmp
? header.php.3.tmp
? header.php.4.tmp
? header.php.5.tmp
? header.php.6.tmp
? header.php.tmp
L .
Deleting the tmp files just restarts the process.
Help!!!
TIA,
Chaim

If you delete the directory with the problem (without losing any changes
that you wish to keep!) and then do svn cleanup and then svn update you might
solve this problem.
I think I have seen similar situations which can be solved by removing the
offending directory.
be careful and paranoid and backup any changes you need! :)

Does includes/.svn/tmp/text-base/header.php.svn-base exist?
Subversion thinks it should. If it doesn't, maybe your working copy
is messed up somehow. Try checking out a new working copy.
