It is called a version-control conflict.  It works when two files are edited by different sources in different ways.  Subversion tries to reconcile the differences, but in some cases it doesn't know which version is correct, so it munges the two files together in the form you saw.  This typically breaks a build or run process and brings the conflict to the attention of a dev who can fix it.

I did an svn checkout of web2py.

What does this mean:

cat VERSION
<<<<<<< .mine
Version 1.52 (2008-12-03 11:25:27)
=======
Version 1.53.5 (2008-12-08 16:55:03)
  
.r543
                

Why are there two version items in the VERSION file?
