No, Subversion will not let you commit a file if someone else has
committed since you last checked out or updated. Subversion places a
very high value on your data and will never, ever automatically
overwrite or delete anything. Actions which potentially lose data (such
as reverting a file that you have modified) require you to explicitly
specify that is what you want to do.
