We sometimes face an issue in Jenkins that when an svn update step fails it locks the workspace, so when the next build is run it notices this and decides to wipe out the workspace and check out a new one, which takes enormous amount of time to build it again.

Instead of getting a fresh workspace, it should simply fail the build. And then the user can check why it happened and do svn cleanup.
