Re: Working Copy Not Locked

Hi again,

Actually, after playing a bit, I can commit some changes in the
subdirectories but if I have a directory within my current working
directory, it tells me that that dir is not locked. I'm not sure exactly
why this happens, am I supposed to do all of the changes from within a
specific location or ?

Thanks,

-- Andrew
