No, the server-side up-to-date test only fails if the *particular*
targets being committed have been changed in the repository. It's
okay for other files, not being committed by A, to have been changed
by B. A's commit will not fail. It doesn't matter if A specific the
targets explicitly or not.
You seem to be proposing that "svn ci" also do an update. That seems
bad, far more unexpected than the current behavior (which was
deliberately designed to match CVS, because we like its behavior in
this situation). Perhaps I'm misunderstanding what you are saying,
though.
