Yes. Read the reply. I said it needs a very simple change to the
template hook script. The template only allows the lock owner to
unlock, which prevents stealing and breaking of locks. You need to
change that so that the admin user can also break locks.

Not that I know of.

How many more hints do you need? You want me to write the script for you?

You could try something like this. It is not the most efficient and it
is not tested, but it is a starting point.

pre-unlock.bat
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
@echo off
setlocal
set REPOS=%1
set PATH=%2
set USER=%3

:: Admin user can always unlock
if "%USER%" == "AdminUserName" exit 0

:: If no lock present return success
svnlook lock "%REPOS%" "%PATH%" | findstr /C:"^Owner:" > nul
if %errorlevel% gtr 0 exit 0

:: If lock is present but not owned by this user, deny unlock
svnlook lock "%REPOS%" "%PATH%" | findstr /C:"^Owner: %USER%" > nul
if %errorlevel% gtr 0 goto err

:: Own lock can be released OK.
exit 0

:err
echo Breaking locks is not allowed. 1>&2
exit 1
