Steps to repro (I did so in 1.8.8, 1.8.12 and 1.9.7):
- user 1 and user 2 have checked out the same repo and their working copy is on trunk.
- user 1 creates foo.txt with contents "a" and commits
- user 2 creates foo.txt with contents "b" and updates
- no warning is issued to user 2 and foo.txt on working copy of user 2 contains "b"

I think it should either show an option on what to do, or a warning or at least leave foo.txt in a conflicted state containing something like "< a > b" (or whatever the diff syntax is).


Doing these steps via the svn console tool results in the much better:
> local file unversioned, incoming file add upon update
> Select: (r) mark resolved, (p) postpone, (q) quit resolution, (h) help:
