Let's say you copy trunk/foo.c as of r6 to branch/foo.c when HEAD is r8. As
the copy changes the repository, the revision number is incremented to 9.

You switch your working copy from trunk to branch, but the revision number
of your working copy foo.c doesn't change due to the switch (right?). So,
you've got for example a foo.c marked as being in synch with r7. When you
try to commit it, you'll get an error because you're trying to commit a file
that's out of date (7 < 9).

This would explain an out-of-date error, but not a _conflict_. Or perhaps
I'm way off here...
