Well the svnX tool does tell you you have a merge pending, and it does
allow you to do fileMerge or diff. If one chooses not to
it still doesn't prevent one from finding a bug that commits your stale
version without asking.
The only thing this would gain is on a commit you wouldn't have your
stale version go up by accident since you would need to do an add
first.
Still I'll consider it until I decide if the tool is trustworthy enough.
