Hi Dave,
Thanks. That's the answer I was looking for.

Strangely, because TortoiseSVN don't help us to solve the conflict. If you
click "ok" in the update window, and use the Edit Conflicts / Resolved in
the explorer context menu, you need to right click again to see "Resolve
conflict using mine".

Thanks,

Eric.
