Could not un- and re- link ~/.subversion/config

Hello the list,
I just lost a few hours trying to do this:
$ cd ~/.subversion
The link command kept failing, because "File exists"
Turns out I cannot remove ~/.subversion/* in one command, as some other process is protecting them from deletion (but not from editing).
Eventually I did figure out the workaround, which is simply to join them into one command
But it was a £*({ing annoying few hours between problem arising and finding solution (and even more annoying that the solution was so simple)
I can find no documentation of this feature at
a) where is it documented ?
Thank you for reading this far, and any writing you might be able to do.
