RE: [TSVN] virus scanner known _not_ to behave badly

Some virus scanners lock files they want to scan. This is especially bad for
the temporary files created by subversion. These scanners still keep the
lock when subversion wants to delete the tempfiles, which can cause file
access violations. The Subversion CL client is normally not affected,
because the virus scanners don't notice if something is happening inside a
dos box.
