[Eclipse] svn: Working copy locked; try performing 'cleanup' - Cannot Perform Cleanup

In Eclipse, I got an error like “svn: Working copy locked; try performing ‘cleanup’” and couldn’t commit. When I tried to cleanup as the error message suggested, I couldn’t perform the cleanup.

The solution was written on the following site, which was very helpful. Thank you.

■ Error Message During Commit

Some of the selected resources were not added to version control. Some of the selected resources were not committed. svn: Working copy 'C:Usersyour_usernameworkspaceprojectxxxUserResign' locked; try performing 'cleanup'

■ Error Message During Cleanup

Some of the selected resources were not cleaned. svn: Error processing command 'modify-entry' in 'C:Usersyour_usernameworkspaceprojectxxxUserResign' svn: Error modifying entry for 'config' svn: 'config' is not under version control

I searched for the word “svn” in the UserResign directory, deleted the log files and lock files, and then I was able to commit properly.

That’s all from the Gemba.
