Do you mean just 'svn add -R'? I can see why that should not error on
already-versioned objects, but if you do 'svn add -R *', that's
different -- it's explicitly naming some objects, so maybe it should
error if they're already versioned.

There's no issue about this for 'svn add' yet. There are issues for
'svn plist' (#774) and 'svn log' (#777). It would be fine to make one
for 'svn add', or to extend the existing issue for plist, but perhaps
first we should decide whether "*" changes the behavior...
