Why is SVN over-writing some local files when synchronizing with the repository?

version-control

Hi,

I am using subclipse to commit changes to SVN. Some files work, e.g. build.properties (I am developing a J2EE application) but most local changes are overwritten to match the version in the repository when I synchronize, and it says "no structural differences"?

Thanks, Jon
