Locking issues.


Recommended Posts

We have a fairly large software package, so to manage it we are implementing TortoiseSVN.

However, currently we are using the locking functionality only.

When trying to implement the merge function, IE accessing files without locking, we cannot save even to local copies.

Does anyone know why this is?

Even if I have a local copy of a folder, I cannot save to that local copy.

It must have something to do with locking settings, but I can't find any kind of menu to alter these settings.

Well even when the file is not locked by anyone, you can't save.

No. If the file is not locked, then nobody's local copy should be writable (changeable). That's kinda the point of the lock/unlock or checkout/checkin paradigm.

(Obviously, you can circumvent this but then your're not really under version control anymore.)
