This is not the intended purpose of locks in the first place - so even
if you *could* lock a directory, it'd be the wrong solution to the
"problem" you're attempting to solve. This should be done via SVN's
built-in security mechanisms, restricting write access to your tags
directory to only those users who should be creating tags.
