>>It's only ridiculous if you routinely have developers working on the same part of the same files at the same time.
This happen evry day with some files, ie: files that contain strings in any language used in the system. But these files are quickly modified, so locking them for a short period of time is not a problem. >> In practice that shouldn't (and doesn't) happen a lot. Whether it happens a lot or not is not the question. The question is being able to properly handle the situation when its happens. And for me, having to handle the merge by hand is not handling the situation at all. >>may I suggest looking for project management tools instead so they aren't all working on the same file at the same time to begin with? Let's say be this is the "correct term" then ;-) -- _______________________________________ REUSE CODE!
