First off, great you are looking at Source Control :-) but do not try and recreate a best practice process for it. I would say get SVN and follow standard process for it.
Check out to your local machine and check in to the repo together (lock files where necessary). You do not want to be editing files on a prod server, locked or otherwise.

Assuming we have some application on some CF server somewhere, and a team of developers working remotely on it. Each developer has a copy of the application on his own development PC, with CF etc. When his work is completed and tested, he just updates the application on the server by sending all new stuff. The tool I'm looking for would just allow some developer to lock files on the server the time he needs to modify them. During that time, no other developer could make the same request for these files. This operation would also make the same file write enabled on his own PC, so he can edit them. Otherwise, all the files in his project are read-only. When modifications are over, he would just send a request for updating the files. This would simply upload the new files to the server and unlock them, so that other developers could work on them too. The system would also provide for synchronization, so that new files are automatically sent to all developers when they log in. This would require some managing system on the server, and a client module on every development station, probably linked to the server module using AJAX. Any idea about this? -- _______________________________________ REUSE CODE!
