It seems pretty dangerous to me to just push dev changes to production. I suggest you have a build server, the watches for commits, runs unit tests and then deploys to staging. Once staging is tested you can push to production.
But, yea, each dev should have their own working environment. It cause much less conflict and problems.

Thank for your response Nico. We what to debug from our development server. Not sure if
there maybe is away to develop on the local PC, and check in the file into the repository
(which will be on the Linux Server) which will copy it to the Tomcat's publish folder on
the server?

They can, in theory, but it's awkward. Two people editing the same
file, at the same time are really likely to run into conflicts or
accidentally mix their changes into the same commit. So I don't
recommend it.
Why can't they work on their own copies, on their own Tomcat servers,
with tuned local Tomcat configs, and merge their changes in their own
branches to a single "master" that is what lives on the website?
