svn lock — Lock working copy paths or URLs in the repository so that no other user can commit changes to them.
Lock each TARGET
. If any
TARGET
is already locked by another user,
print a warning and continue locking the rest of the
TARGET
s. Use --force
to
steal a lock from another user or working copy.
Lock two files in your working copy:
$ svn lock tree.jpg house.jpg 'tree.jpg' locked by user 'harry'. 'house.jpg' locked by user 'harry'.
Lock a file in your working copy that is currently locked by another user:
$ svn lock tree.jpg svn: warning: Path '/tree.jpg is already locked by user 'sally in filesystem '/var/svn/repos/db' $ svn lock --force tree.jpg 'tree.jpg' locked by user 'harry'.
Lock a file without a working copy:
$ svn lock http://svn.red-bean.com/repos/test/tree.jpg 'tree.jpg' locked by user 'harry'.
