Thanks. We have this class which looks like it has all the right values:

http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/subversion/bindings/javahl/src/org/tigris/subversion/javahl/ConflictDescriptor.java

So I will look at adding a method to turn those values into a string
(assuming I come up with a place in the UI where I want to show this).

One possible problem is that we do not have this available to us when
we call Status API:

http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/subversion/bindings/javahl/src/org/tigris/subversion/javahl/Status.java

I notice that it is contained in svn_wc_status2_t (as is a
file_externals boolean) so maybe we just need that stuff punched
through and we will be all set.
