I'd switch this to a ### comment saying "we should lock the working
copy to prevent changes while we perform the copy to the repository."

But when we do that... aren't we starting a commit? and doesn't the
commit lock the working copy?

Sounds good. Again, I would suggest the call_with_write_lock()
function. I would like to eventually remove the acquire/release
variants, as they are more prone to leaving locks around.

No, it calls the lower level function svn_client__do_commit that does
no locking.  I think I'll change it to take locks, assuming that doing
so doesn't cause regression tests failures.  I don't suppose anybody
relies on wc-to-repo copy "working" when the wc is already locked :)
