How about we start with a list of the possible error messages? =) IME, a merge conflict means you, the user, have to manually recreate the tree via svn copy, svn mv, etc. commands. Which is a *huge* perception/paradigm change from how file merges are handled. Meaning, tree conflicts have zero automation/help from svn. Once you accept that, and learn how to read the messages, tree conflicts aren't that mysterious anymore.
