You're right - it's "an excuse". You can't use software to solve a
social or communication problem. Your colleagues need to take
responsibility for doing their job properly.

How did they not "clobber" each others' work before SVN? It sounds
like you're doing everything you can form the SVN side with
svn:needs-lock.

Some of the most inept computer users I have met are programmers and
others responsible for keeping computer systems working. As above -
you aren't alone here.
