TGitCache.exe won't let user delete folder

By Todd.Sei... on June 26, 2010 19:40 (imported from Google Code)


What steps will reproduce the problem?

  1. Close a repository
  2. Delete cloned repository from hard drive. Right click folder and select delete. Not "git delete".
  3. Windows 7 says can't delete files because they are in use.
  4. Have to manually force TGitCache.exe process to end to delete folder.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Folder should delete when I tell it to.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Windows 7
TortoiseGit 1.4.4.0
git version 1.7.0.2.mysysgit.0

Please provide any additional information below.
I just want to delete the folder from my hard drive. Not the contents of the repository or remote repository.
