Overwrite a file with "svn update"?

- Subject: Overwrite a file with "svn update"?
Perhaps, I missed the required options, but I'll
ask an obvious question anyway. Often when testing
a patch, one will often place a new testcase in
gcc/testsuite/*. This new file is not under control
of svn. After review, the patch is committed to the
tree. Now, I want to update my local repository.
I issue "svn update" and the result is
svn: Failed to add file 'gcc/testsuite/gfortran.dg/fgetc_1.f90': \
object of the same name already exists
which is indeed correct. So, is there an option to tell
svn to blow away files that conflict with files in the
repository.
