I would assume it is because the WC is out of date (like when another
developer committed the last build). These are probably updates to
existing files. One option would be to come up with a system where they
only commit new files. That would solve both problems.

I thought I read recommendations in the past that said you could provide a
script for diff2/diff3 or something like that, which just says there are
no conflicts? He would still have to update though.

Jason, did you know Subversion only stores the binary differences? For
some types of binaries, even if the binary itself is large, this could be
a small amount of data. Both to send over the wire and store in the
repository. For other types of files, it winds up being the entire file.
