I am not so sure. I sometimes run tests on specific machines, modifying the config space, and there is a chance that a cron job executes a softupdate at the same time. If I would be in the middle of a commit, I would be disappointed if the cron job would silently overrun my work. I would rather see the cron job fail in this situation. I would make running "svn clean" an option for those who really need it, and leave it off by default. Toomas
