AW: breaking locks in svn cleanup in 1.9.2

Sorry for the noise, I just found the thread "Bug reports / don't break locks by default".

For the "throw away old pristines" use of "svn cleanup", breaking locks for files
(if we're talking about the svn:needslock type of locks)
is a bad idea. I vote for making it sticky, if not default to off (because the main
use for svn cleanup should be the "nothing went wrong, just vacuum once a month")
which should not disturb working copy status.

Betreff: breaking locks in svn cleanup in 1.9.2

Hello!

IIRC in the cleanup dialog the new option "break locks" showed up in 1.9. (I can't remember having seen it before)

(1)
What is the reason for this command?
Does it hurt to have this checked?

(2)
Is there a special reason why this is activated by default every time I run the cleanup command?

The "vacuum pristine copies" selection is "sticky". If I select it, it will be selected for the next run.

(I simply wanted to get rid of old pristine files and ran cleanup on a few large working copies
that didn't have any problems. I didn't want to change working copy status at all.)

Mit freundlichen Grüßen
