Dear Ben,
I have look at that many times- but the only way I heard of is
autoprop, but doesnt sound like a good solution to me for the time
being since its very difficult to setup. Anyone can give me
something easy to swallow?
Subversion is a concurrent system. Therefore, requiring locks is
considered a special exception, and thus requires extra work.
There's no magic button to make the whole system behave like VSS.
You have to set 'svn:needs-lock' on every file. There's no other
solution. (I'm not sure why you think it's so difficult...?)
