Posting so others can benefit. Last week I started getting this error and haven't been able to find a way to get around it:
$ gclient sync svn: Working copy 'C:\cygwin\home\scherkus\depot_tools' locked svn: run 'svn cleanup' to remove locks (type 'svn help cleanup' for details) svn: Working copy 'C:\cygwin\home\scherkus\depot_tools' locked svn: run 'svn cleanup' to remove locks (type 'svn help cleanup' for details) $ cd ~/depot_tools $ svn cleanup . svn: In directory '.' svn: Error processing command 'modify-wcprop' in '.' svn: 'WATCHLISTS' is not under version control Because I couldn't clean up depot_tools, the repository remained locked which meant gclient couldn't run. Quick and easy solution (assuming you don't have local edits): $ rm -rf ~/depot_tools $ svn co http://src.chromium.org/svn/trunk/tools/depot_tools/ depot_tools Andrew --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Chromium Developers mailing list: chromium-dev@googlegroups.com View archives, change email options, or unsubscribe: http://groups.google.com/group/chromium-dev -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
