Now I've got another problem: I was testing the permissions of my archive directory by committing a change as another user. Both users are members of the group 'dev' and I recursivly chgrp'd and chmod'd my {archives} directory so group 'dev' has write access. I successfully committed with the other user, so all seemed well.
Well, after editing several files (as myself now) I wanted to check in my changes, but now I get an error 'arch_commit: unable to acquire revision lock' I looked and saw there was a lock set for revision patch-1 by the other user. I couldn't figure a way around it, so I eventually deleted the directory (in the {archives} tree). Thing is, I still get the error now, and I've got no idea what I may have messed up or where to look now. why does arch think there is a lock set? or more to the point, why can't I set the lock needed to commit a change?
Should I maybe start over with a new project, or is this fixable?
