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

Description

function svn_cleanup(string $workingdir): bool

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

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() or dirname(__FILE__).

Return Values

Returns true on success or false on failure.

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