But are there conflict detections on URLs?

For instance, User1 wants to do:

  svn move URL1 URL2

But User2 has just done:

  svn move URL1 URL3
  svn move URL4 URL1

I think that if User1 does a "svn move wcpath1 wcpath2", a conflict
will be detected, as wcpath1 moved to wcpath3 in the repository. But
when using URLs, I don't see how such a conflict can be detected and
the wrong directory (previously URL4) will be moved.
