Hi,
In Subversion 1.6 'svn lock <file>' in a read-only workspace fails as expected
and no lock is created either in the workspace or in the repository.
In Svn 1.7/1.8 'svn lock <file>' still fails, but it creates a repository-side
lock (see below). Is this a regression or was the change intentional?
