I would rather leave "lock->repository" alone but replace "in
repository" with "for repository".

The client should not be told about the lock directory - it is an internal
affair of the server. But the message should not imply that the lock
diretory is created in the repository itself - this may of may not be
true dependent on the LockDir option.
