It might also be nice to show a detailed conflict description only
if the user asks for help:

 File merged from '^/trunk/foo_at_2' to '^/branches/b1/foo_at_16' was moved
 to '^/branches/b1/bar' by ivan in r5.
 A file which differs from the corresponding file on the merge source
 branch was found in the working copy.

By default we could show an abbreviated version of this description.
