svn_cleanup

SVN_CLEANUP(3)								 1							    SVN_CLEANUP(3)

svn_cleanup - Recursively cleanup a working copy directory, finishing incomplete operations and removing locks

SYNOPSIS

       bool svn_cleanup (string  $workingdir)

DESCRIPTION

	Recursively  cleanup  working  copy directory $workingdir, finishing any incomplete operations and removing working copy locks. Use when a
       working copy is in limbo and needs to be usable again.

PARAMETERS

	      o $workingdir
		- String path to local working directory to cleanup

	      Note

		     Relative paths will be resolved as if the current working directory was the one that contains the	PHP  binary.  To  use  the
		     calling script's working directory, use realpath(3) or dirname(__FILE__).

RETURN VALUES

	Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.

NOTES

       Warning

	      This  function is EXPERIMENTAL. The behaviour of this function, its name, and surrounding documentation may change without notice in
	      a future release of PHP. This function should be used at your own risk.

EXAMPLES

       Example #1

	      Basic example

	       This example demonstrates clean up of a working copy in a directory named help-me:

	      <?php
	      svn_cleanup(realpath('help-me'));
	      ?>

	       The realpath(3) call is necessary due to SVN's quirky handling of relative paths.
