  svn: E175002: Adding directory failed: COPY on

 Turned out that another developer had locks on several files.
 Confirmed that was the problem.  A more specific error message would
 have been handy here.

Can you describe how to reproduce the problem?  What sort of locks
prevent a COPY?  Orphaned locks perhaps?

They were working copy locks from another developer.  I asked him to try the 
build himself to see if it allows the user who holds the lock to svn copy, 
haven't heard back from that.

Breaking the locks allowed me to do an SVN copy.  

I haven't tried reproducing, but I certainly can if that would be helpful.

Are you sharing working copies with multiple people?

If by that you mean checking out somewhere and having multiple people using the 
same working copy, no.  Each developer has their own working copy.  The reason 
the files were locked is that they're unmergeable binaries, AND most people 
here are still used to StarTeam.  I offered up some other options to keep other 
developers from accidentally changing these files.
