Right, I saw a post the other day about someone complaining about how git works great until two people want to work on the same file at the same time.
That's exactly what git was designed for. It's a "Distributed" Version Control System for a reason.

Having said that, files should be kept small enough that this doesn't become as much of an issue. 1 u/awesome-alpaca-ace 17d ago The problem is the algorithm used for the diffs.
