After I got a fresh workstation computer, there is something different with my SVN setup. All files I create have svn:needs-lock property set by default. Actually this wasn't the case in the past and I do not really need it because there too little concurrent developers here.

Could you please tell me how to configure my computer to not set this property by default?

System: Windows 7

SVN client: TortoiseSVN

There can be various reasons why you have svn:needs-lock property automatically applied on your versioned files:

  1. You have enable-auto-props = yes set in [miscellany] section of you %APPDATA%\Subversion\config file (Subversion runtime configuration area) and the [auto-props] section is configured to set svn:needs-lock on every file.

  2. You have tsvn:autoprops property applied on folders in your repository.

  3. You use Subversion 1.8 client and the repository has svn:auto-props property applied on it's root or project's root.

Have I missed something?
