 "you'll get a warning about being not up to date"

That would be great, but I'm working with CVS and Eclipse and that warning
does not seems to exist (it's a plugin to connect to a CVS server). I did
some tests here with one branch being shared between two developers, and
without that "warning" things can get dangerous. But this approach looks
better than the "a branch per developer" one.
Does anybody have experience with CVS and Eclipse in this list?
Thanks,
Giovanni Giazzon
