That should clear it up, Subversion alas has a couple of different
kinds of locks, see this page for a more detailed explanation:

http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.2/svn.advanced.locking.html

(this is from an old revision of the svn book, the corresponding pages
in the latest edition no longer clearly mention the different kinds of
locks you can run into)

For a more concise explanation: open "Versions Help" from the help
menu in-app and see the section "Being busy" under "About Subversion -
> Key concepts -> Multiple clients" (also online over here:
http://www.versionsapp.com/viewdocpage/about_svn_kc_multiclient.html)

Basically all you'll need to remember is to hit the "Cleanup Working
Copy Locks" action menu item when you see those little clock icons in
the browser, or run 'svn cleanup' from the command-line.
