Hi Ankit.

There aren't any lock files in there at present. As I understand it, I
think they usually clear themselves after a certain amount of time.

[rossg container rossg]$ cd /cvs/gnome/gnome-alsamixer/po
[rossg container po]$ ls -l *.lock
ls: *.lock: No such file or directory

In cases like this, it's best to keep trying. If it definitely hasn't
cleared after several hours, then report it to <cvsmaster gnome org>.
