RE: Re: file/user - access

To my best knowledge, in 1.2 you can lock a file so that you have
exclusive token to *commit* to it. This lock however does not prevent
other people from editing it. They won't be able to commit, but they
will be able to edit as much as they want. Once you release the lock ,
they will be able to commit.

What you probably meant, is that the locking feature is (also) a
communication method, i.e. you can't know who checked out but you can
know who locked.

Hope I got it right,

Gal.

In 1.2, you can lock a file so that you have the exclusive token to make
changes to it. I believe you can determine if a file is checked out with

   svn stat.
