Working Copy Locked

From: s.ross <cwdinfo_at_gmail.com>

I'm on a Mac (OSX 10.4.10) and normally svn purrs right along. I have
a Rails
project and have been maintaining a single locked-down version of
Rails in:

/project/vendor/rails

I decided to use externals to point to a tagged version, so I did an
svn rm of
/project/vendor/rails, switched to the project home directory (/
project) then
svn propedit svn:externals .

I put this in the property:

vendor/rails http://wherever.rails.lives.com/whatever/tags/i/like/

The redbean book says this oughta work. Now, if I do:

svn up vendor/rails

I get:

Fetching external item into 'vendor/rails'
svn: Working copy 'vendor/rails' locked
svn: run 'svn cleanup' to remove locks (type 'svn help cleanup' for
details)

I tried the svn cleanup command and it didn't remedy the situation. I
seem
to recall there is an easy fix for this but can't remember the details.

Any help is immensely appreciated.

Thanks

svn, version 1.3.2 (r19776)
