A question about committing a deleted file

From: Zi Wang <zi.wang_at_axure.com>

Hello, please help me to understand this:

Here is the scenario:

Two person A and B are working on the same project and both have a working
copy on their machine,
A: Lock(check out) a file, call it FILE_X
B: Break FILE_X's lock, then Delete FILE_X and Commit
A: Update (now FILE_X is gone on A's working copy), then Add a new file
also called FILE_X, then Commit

Now, at this point, FILE_X on A's working copy will have a Lock, even
though it was a new file just with the same name, how come? Does SVN
remembers the status? If so, is there a way to tell SVN to 'forgot' the
status?

Thank you!
