RE: Document locked, won't release

Have you checked the document properties in explorer (the file one not
internet!) Is it possible that the read only attribute has been ticked,
which would then effect the tortoise's perception of the documents status.

Just a guess haven't had chance to test this theory.

Subject: Document locked, won't release

I use a personal installation of Subversion to keep track of Microsoft Word
files I edit, using TortoiseSVN as the client. Just to note there's no
remote access; I'm the only one who edits the files.

I have a problem I've never seen before; when I opened a particularly file,
I found it displayed as "read-only". Checking the document icon, it has a
grey tick which indicates that it's locked in Subversion. I don't remember
locking it! :) Anyway, I tried checking the file's TortoiseSVN context menu,
the only option was "Get Lock". For the sake of it, I tried using "Get
Lock", then "Release Lock", but the file stills stays read-only with a gray
tick icon.

Any help appreciated,

P.
