You've tried 'cleanup' on the working copy?
svn cleanup --help
cleanup: Recursively clean up the working copy, removing locks, resuming
unfinished operations, etc.
usage: cleanup [PATH...]
Valid options:
--diff3-cmd arg : use ARG as merge command
--config-dir arg : read user configuration files from directory ARG
