What does this Eclipse icon mean in a Merge Results view?

Question

I just did an svn merge from a branch to a trunk in my Eclipse IDE, and in the Merge Results view, there is this following icon:

I am dying to know what it means. I have searched the entire Eclipse documentation and some relevant StackOverflow questions, but couldn't find anything.

The CollabNet documentation about Merge Results View explains what a Merge Results View is, but doesn't mention anything about the meanings of its icons.

Does anyone know? Thanks!

Answer 1

I believe that is the icon for a SVN tree-conflict which is new in SVN 1.6. Try doing Show Tree Conflicts option and see if the same items appear in the tree conflicts view. Also see:

Answer 2

I've just hit up against the same thing.

After a bit of digging around I believe that it means there were changes to the file in both places however the changes are the same, therefore the files are the same.
