Subversion 1.6 and tree conflicts

Most subversion users are familiar with text conflicts. The classic
Case: You have a locally edited file in your working copy,"SVN update"
Brings a change to the same file from the repository, that incoming
Change cannot be merged cleanly into your local change, and the result
Is a text conflict. Subversion 1.6.0 expands this concept to cover
Conflicts at the directory level, e.g. You locally delete a file then
An update tries to bring a text change down on that file. These new
Types of conflicts are called tree conflicts.
