We're storing our DocBook documents on an svn server.  We recently made 
two changes to the system, and in the process something broke.

I can now open documents from our svn server (which is at an https 
address), but I can't save them back there.  I get the ff. msg:
    Cannot save document https://<servername>/<path>
    Cannot refresh the lock of file
    "https://<servername>/<path>":
    Error for resource <path>: 412 (Precondition failed)
(with <servername> and <path> replaced by actual ones, of course)

I've looked up 412 "Precondition failed" on the web, but the description 
is not helpful to me.

I can create a new file and save it the first time, but if I edit the 
newly saved file and try to save the changes, I get the above error again.

There was a thread on the xmlmind mailing list in June 2010, but it 
seems not to be our case--we're starting XXE from Windows, not (afaik) 
from the Java Web Start.

One of the changes we made was a move to XXE v5.1.1 from 4.something. 
It's possible I've made an error in setting the options in XXE, which 
seem to be different now--in particular, one of the options (using the 
built-in URL chooser) now appears on the File menu, instead of in the 
Options | Preferences dialog box.  But that seems unlikely to be the 
cause of the problem we're seeing.

The WebDAV plugin shows version 2.1.4_01 in the "Install Add-ons" dialog.

Suggestions?  I was looking for some logfiles, but I don't see any.
