Low priority bug report.

I've been using TortoiseSVN 1.5.2 on Windows XP (Service Pack 3?) and
mostly it's all good !! So Ta guys for your efforts in creating some
nice software.

Just one minor issue has cropped up - whenever I have a file in
"conflicted" state I can't generally use TortoiseSVN to run the
equivalent of "svn resolved" on the file. I get a dialog title "Resolve
- TortoiseSVN Failed !" with Action: "Error" Path: "Encountered a
sharing violation while accessing C:\...<some work file or other>."

FYI The work dir is a local disk.

I searched the issue tracker for similar issues and found none, so
apologies if my search skills turned out to be insufficient.

I have discovered 2 work-arounds -
  1: reboot and run the resolve before doing anything else with the
computer - for some reason this works.
  2: Use a command line client (either tigris or collabnet seems to
work) to run "svn resolved" command, by-passing TortoiseSVN.

I have also observed that the only time the sharing violation occurs is
after clicking on the "resolved" item on
the Tortoise menu - at all times other software seem able to access the
file(s) without causing the sharing violation, so my guess is that the
confirmation dialog that pops up is the culprit holding the file open
sufficiently too long to cause the resolve operation to fail.

I have work arounds and for reasons you won't care about I'm presently
stuck with 1.5.2 anyway, so I won't be able to benefit from any
potential fixes (for a while at least) :-) but I just wanted to raise it
as something that might need looking at.

Thanks,

MJ.
