Catching Subversion conflicts on commit

If two people work on the same file in the same place in the file, Subversion can get a bit confused about how to merge the two different pieces, and will prompt the user to help it sort things out. However, it is up to the user to actually do so, and they're perfectly able to try to submit that file with the conflict markers still in the file. This is a pre-submit hook to not let people shoot themselves (and your codebase) in the foot.
