Comment 1 for bug 1182798

I am not sure if this is really a bug in bzr-eclipse. bzr-eclipse locks the whole workspace only for the period of time needed to run bzr pull command (you should see a dialog box with progress bar). Once the dialog box is gone the workspace is released by bzr-eclipse. If the projects/workspace is still locked it is likely to be caused by Eclipse itself or some other plugins. Staus cache updates in bzr-eclipse are non-blocking.
