That sentence is sooo out of context :(.

It's not easy to make a "hg update" to an earlier version with 13.000-ish
files on a file server during a weekday, because files get locked on the
network share - blame our windows workstations.

One could've hoped that Mercurial would just skip those locked files instead
of completely bailing out, but let that be for now.

Best regards,
Jan
