When trying to create a tag using the Artifactory release management staging process I received the following error.

Failure in post build SCM action: Subversion tag creation failed: svn: E155005: Commit failed (details follow):
svn: E155005: Working copy '/var/lib/jenkins/jobs/CompileADF/workspace/AtradiusInsightsApp/.mdsExport' is missing or not locked

I believe this is due to the .mdsExport folder being an empty hidden file is causing the issue. Any ideas why?
