RE: Re: Show colleagues locks BEFORE edit...

> The main advantage of svn is that it only talks to the server when it has to. In order to do what you suggest and keep it up to date svn would have to constantly poll the server with "are there any locked files..." in order to show a status of locked in repo. If TSVN does get a feature to do that... please make it OFF by default.

Hi BOb,

Agreed - that solution would be rubbish.

BUT, requesting the status of a file as soon as the modify event is issued in a dev environment (i.e. developer starts changing file) & warning the user that this is locked before they do too much work would be a great compromise.

No polling & very little overhead in terms of traffic - only runs a check when a file starts being modified.

I know it won't happen, but it will sit on my wishlist. ;-)

Thanks
Dan
