RE: [Subclipse-users] svn: Failed to add directory 'test': object of the same name

That means that during update operation server instructs client to create
directory "test", but directory or file with such name already exists
(unversioned) in the working copy. To resolve ther problem you have to
delete "test" directory and re-run update.
