Not sure whether "Mark as resolved" means much to the user. Maybe
"Accept/Use current version" would be easier to get? Or maybe
"Accept/Use current" to keep the label consistent with the style of the
others.

IMO "Reject incoming" is the inversed way to describe what's being done.
Better would be: "Accept current"?

=> "Accept incoming non-conflicting changes only."?

Same as above: "Accept/Use current"

Same as above.

The wording is a bit misleading IMO. It might be interpreted as
non-conflicting incoming changes being rejected rather than these being
merged implicitly (or am I wrong?).

Maybe better wording would be:
Label: Resolve conflicts with incoming changes
Desc: Accept incoming and resolve conflicts using the incoming changes.

Reject conflicts doesn't quite reflect what's being done. Maybe:

"Resolve conflicts with local changes."
"Accept incoming and resolve conflicts using the local changes."

The label doesn't quite reflect what's being done (aka: how it's
updated). Maybe: "Apply changes to move destination"

Maybe better: Merge incoming file with local.

TBH: I'm not sure what the behavior of this option is. It sounds like
it's the same as the previous one to me... Where's the difference?

Same as before. Where is this different to
svn_client_conflict_option_incoming_added_dir_merge?

Great work btw. :-)
