Description

when executing a command like

mvn -B -f E:\.jenkins\workspace\release-test\pom.xml -DdevelopmentVersion=1.6-SNAPSHOT -DreleaseVersion=1.5 -Dresume=false release:prepare

the execution failes:

The svn command failed.
[ERROR] Command output:
[ERROR] svn: E155000: Commit failed (details follow):
[ERROR] svn: E155000: No write-lock in '.'

If we don't use 'E:' (the drive letter) in the file path the execution goes fine

I use svnkit 1.7, maven 3.2 and java 7

the command was executed from Jenkins and from command prompt as well
