Mi Moisei,
I do talk a lot about organizing branching, and how you can make that
an effective part of your development process. I think you may find
it helpful, even though I don't think I specifically address your use
case.
One way to lock across branches would be to use a separate locking
directory, where developers could grab a lock on a copy of the file
when they wanted to work on any other copy of the file in a branch.
Then you could use a hook script to only allow the owner of that lock
to commit changes to the file on any branch. It would require you to
have very organized branches (or a unique naming scheme) in order for
the hook script to perform the matching, but it just might work for you.
Unfortunately, this doesn't solve the problem of ensuring that
developers don't waste time by working on a file they don't hold the
lock to. Off the top of my head, I'm not thinking of a good solution
to that problem across branches.
