Working with unmergeable files

[br...@embraer.com.br]

I have a kind of best practices question.
Is it possible to make parallel development with unmergeable files? For me it really seems impossible.
How do you work with unmergeable files? Just serialize its development? Break it in smaller files? what else?

Hi Braulio,
 
The best approach for "unmerge able" files like word document and images is to serialize development. This can be neatly implemented in Subversion using the svn:needs-lock property.
 
Thanks
Lakshman
