The current lock feature usable by admins, cvs admin -l and
cvs admin -u, seems to not be available to end users - which
makes sense when using CVS for product development. We are
using CVS not only for application development, but as well
for documents and this require to have people being able
to lock their documents.


The CVS watch and edit commands may be a better solution:

We looked at it in the begining, but watch/edit was not the
simpler technique to deploy. This patch has been used for the
last 5 months and seems to make happy their users.
