According to the documentation: http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-release-plugin/examples/lock-files .html
Am I right in assuming that I'd be able to lock files during a release with: release:prepare -DuseEditMode=true so that nobody could commit files/directories during the release preparation procedure ? If I'm right, what happens if the prepare procedure fails? Will it unlock or keep it locked? I'm using subversion 1.6. Thx in advance
