Yes, it has this option and it is helpful. But, it has to be called by the
developers so, again, bad things can happen when editing the same file.
Even though, we do this synchronization before edit and before commit.
I think that there is no way to prevent these conflicts in concurrent
implementation. It is something that I'm not used to, since I'm coming from
SourceSafe-like version control systems.

Thanks,
Giovanni Giazzon
