We have implemented the bug workaround that you suggested earlier, namely
starting XXE (pro edition) with the following parameter
   -putpref lockTimeout 0
added to the command line.  This was to work around the bug where XXE
couldn't save a changed file back to an SVN (WebDAV) server.  We only use
the above parameter once on each machine, after that it seems to
automagically work.

However, we now have a different bug: sometimes (unpredictably), after
someone shuts down XXE, the SVN server thinks they still have their files
locked.  I then have to go in on the command line and type "svn unlock
--force..." to break the lock before anyone (including the original user)
can edit the file.

We're still on XXE v5.1.1; our IT department doesn't like to re-install
things without persuasion.  Is there a fix for this bug?  Or has anyone
even reported it?  I don't know how to reliably reproduce it--seems to only
happen sometimes (possibly the user immediately logs out of Windows after
closing XXE, and the setting doesn't propogate??? but computers are
generally faster than we are :-)).
