Not really sure how to answer this. If you Synchronize your workspace and
there is both an outgoing change and an incoming change to the same file,
it will show as a conflict. Which is what you say you want. I cannot
explain why that would not be what you are seeing. Perhaps you ran an
update at some point so that SVN has already merged those changes into your
working copy.
I will note that SVN also will not allow you to commit without updating.
So one way or another, if the file in the repository is newer you cannot
commit without first updating.
