title: Is there a fast way to lock my SVN repository's trunk?
body: <p>There are moments when I need to be sure that no one is committing to either a specific branch or to my trunk.  Release builds and reintegration merges are an example.</p>
  
  <p>SVN "locking" all the files is not realistic (very long since project is huge).  I also don't believe that locking prevents someone from committing new files.</p>
  
  <p>What would be a quick way to make sure no one commits anything to the folder until I'm done what I'm doing?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
