In poking around at the svn backend I found that the svn post-commit
hook calls to svn update fail regularly with an error code of 256.
Apparently during the post-commit hook can't update because the
working copy is locked from the commit. Since the post-commit hook doesn't send
errors anywhere and svn update runs with --quiet anyhow, this error
isn't usually visible, but on my system:
ethan@sundance:~/tests/webtemplates/ikiwiki3/wc$ svn commit -m "Blah.."

A sample error message (obtained through file redirection) is:
svn: Working copy '.' locked
svn: run 'svn cleanup' to remove locks (type 'svn help cleanup' for details)
Did I do something stupid again or is this the case on your system too?
