To lock a folder, use the following command:

Code:

sudo chmod -R 0600 foldername

To unlock a folder, reset the permissions as they were previously.
That's also done with the "chmod" command.

Hello,

I don't think OP is looking for information about locking filed/folders in a filesystem but on how to lock SVN branches which is quite different.

@OP: Have a look at this page. That should help you out.

Kind regards,

Eric
