SVN/Tortoise Always Makes Files Readonly

Whenever I do a checkout/update on my SVN project using Tortoise the files all get set to read-only. Is there an option to stop this? I have 1 particular project where I need any checkouts/updates to never make files read-only.

Thanks


Looks like your files has svn:needs-lock set. To check this, select TortoiseSVN -> Properties context menu on any locked file. See http://tortoisesvn.net/docs/release/TortoiseSVN_en/tsvn-dug-locking.html#tsvn-dug-locking-needs-lock for more information.

Also, it looks like you have Automatic property setting, that set needs-lock on all new committed files automatically. Select TortoiseSVN->Settings, General tab, click Edit button to see subversion configuration file. See, if enable-auto-props = yes string is uncommented, and if there are some uncommented lines in [auto-props] section.

Or probably you have project properties set on some parent folder (e.g., trunk) as recursive. To check this, select TortoiseSVN -> Properties on project parent folders.

See http://tortoisesvn.net/docs/release/TortoiseSVN_en/tsvn-dug-propertypage.html#tsvn-dug-propertypage-auto-props for more information.
