RE: SVN repository possible race condition

Has a bug report been filed on this issue or has it been fixed?

We are using Subversion's post-commit hook to auto-deploy repository changes out to our Windows and UNIX development servers via CIFS and NFS.

The deploys to the UNIX boxes are fine but on a regular basis the working copies on the Windows shares blow up and it's getting worse as more auto-deploys are used.

What I mean by the Windows working copies blowing up is our logs will show the following errors:

svn: Can't remove file '/mnt/autofs/windows/10.XX.XX.XX/Inetpub/doc-root/images/.svn/lock': No such file or directory
svn: Working copy '/mnt/autofs/windows/10.200.XX.XX/Inetpub/doc-root' locked
svn: run 'svn cleanup' to remove locks (type 'svn help cleanup' for details)

Running 'svn cleanup' as suggested results in the following error:

svn: Can't remove 'doc-root/js/.svn/tmp/prop-base': No such file or directory

And running 'svn cleanup' multiple times results in the same error but different paths that randomly repeat:

svn: Can't remove 'doc-root/js/.svn/tmp/prop-base': No such file or directory
svn: Can't remove 'doc-root/controls/.svn/tmp/prop-base': No such file or directory
svn: Can't remove 'doc-root/Categories/.svn/tmp/prop-base': No such file or directory
svn: Can't remove 'doc-root/controls/.svn/tmp/prop-base': No such file or directory

From the point we get working copy locked errors and onward, we cannot do anything with the working copy. We are forced to check out a new working copy to the Windows boxes and wait for it to happen again.

In another Windows working copy, we got the following errors in our logs, which is probably related:

svn: In directory '/mnt/autofs/windows/10.XX.XX.XX/Inetpub/doc-root/countries/france/resourceCenters'
svn: Error processing command 'delete-entry' in '/mnt/autofs/windows/10.XX.XX.XX/Inetpub/doc-root/countries/france/resourceCenters'
svn: Can't remove '/mnt/autofs/windows/10.XX.XX.XX/Inetpub/doc-root/countries/france/resourceCenters/pdf/.svn/tmp/prop-base': No such file or directory
svn: Working copy '/mnt/autofs/windows/10.XX.XX.XX/Inetpub/doc-root' locked
svn: run 'svn cleanup' to remove locks (type 'svn help cleanup' for details)

We are running our Subversion server on a CentOS 5.2. The Subversion and apr information is:
