You have to remember that Subversion is a version control tool. It won't
and can't help you if your developers don't communicate at all. Two
developers changing the same function always means that your team does
not communicate well, that the responsibility (who is responsible for
what part of the code) is not clear. You really should work on that!
It doesn't make any sense if two people are working on the very same thing!
