You cut my example :-(

     $ svn lock dir
     $ svn add dir/foo
     $ svn rm dir/bar
     $ svn ci dir/foo

Clearcase requires the equivalent of "svn ci dir" so both the add and
the rm get committed; Subversion allows just one to be committed.
What happens to the lock and the uncommitted modification?
