In general, using CVS, you don't use locks and you don't worry about
other people locking and unlocking files.  If you like, you can have
"cvs watch on" the files and ask people to use "cvs edit" to edit
files and "cvs editors" to see whoever else might be editing them.
Normally, you'd work on abc.java, and if somebody else was you'd
have CVS merge the changes for you.
