title: Why do I keep getting 'SVN: Working Copy XXXX locked; try performing 'cleanup'?
body: <p>If you have worked with SVN tools in Eclipse (Subversion, subversive) before, then you are likely familiar with the 'working copy 'XXX' locked..." error.</p>
  
  <p>I found a very useful post with a workaround for this problem at: <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/127932/svn-working-copy-xxx-locked-and-cleanup-failed">Working copy XXX locked and cleanup failed in SVN</a></p>
  
  <p>As great as the workaround is, it is a pain to do it over and over again. Does anyone know why I keep getting this error and what steps I could take to prevent it?</p>
  
  <p>Context: I am creating an Eclipse plugin that involves listening for SVN events, so in testing this plugin, I am constantly opening and closing the workspace. I usually do 1 or 2 commits each time I open the workspace. Every so often the commit will fail and I get the 'working copy locked' error. I would love for this error to not happen anymore, so any advice is appreciated.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
