If you ever have this error message when running
svn status
! C stories
> local delete, incoming edit upon update

=> Clean it with reverting the conflicted folder with:

svn revert stories

Thank you!!! The svn documentation is generally pretty good, but it's great to google an error message and find a simple fix right away!
