Bug Description

In some cases (mainly seems to happen on commit, pull and merge) a lock remains behind on a branch after TortoiseBzr has finished working. This seems mostly the case when either:
- The TortoiseBzr action fails (e.g. due to a network error or something else)
- The commit window stays open for a long time before starting the commit (e.g. the user is typing a long message)

Unfortunately there is no way to break a lock from TortoiseBzr so you have to drop back to the command line again to fix the problem.

Please could take a look in My Documents\.bzr.log when this happens, and
look at the end of the file for any errors. Having these errors will
help us locate the code that badly structured.

I've finally managed to reproduce this. Todays section of the bzr log is attached. I can't quite remember what the order of all actions was but I do know that I had the commit dialog open while adding more items to the repository (through the add dialog). I then hit refresh in the commit dialog and committed the changes. After that there was a lock that shouldn't have been there.

I had another incident like this yesterday where I had the commit dialog open for a considerable amount of time (maybe 20mins) when I got distracted while writing my commit message. After committing the lock was there again.
