Well, the main thing is it has to be a user name that you have already
created an account for.  There's no particular fashion, and the other
user names are all over the shop (see
http://sourceforge.net/project/memberlist.php?group_id=4932), but you
do have to have already registered the name with SourceForge and
established that nobody else is using it.  Just let us know what name
you end up with.

If your checkout is out of date, then it will refuse to commit at all.
 What you should usually do is run "svn update" immediately before you
commit; that is the point at which any changes made to the repository
in the meantime are merged into your local copy, leaving nothing to
resolve when you commit.

If a file has changed in ways that SVN can't automatically merge on
update -- which usually means the same lines have been changed in the
repository as in the local copy -- then it will leave that file in
"conflicted" state and you won't be able to commit it until the
conflict is resolved in your local copy.

All of the history is retained, so there's nothing you can do that
couldn't be rolled back by you or someone else if it had to be.

All the same, if you'd prefer not to have the responsibility, or would
prefer not to go to the trouble of signing up with SourceForge, that's
equally fine -- we're happy to keep reviewing & committing patches if
that's what you (or any other contributor) prefer.
