What about the attached patch ?
It displays a colorful warning and offers to commit only the
modified file (if you use svn, if you use git-svn like me, you're on your
own).
I can make that conditional on IDMODE=DLA but I believe it can be useful
for the security team too. You can skip the commit if you have a good
reason and it avoids you typing one command in other cases.
Cheers,
