Back in the early days of TFS I was briefly at a company that went all in on MS tools. TFS was used and to avoid the lock each developer had a clone made and after checking their clone in the “TFS Guy” in the office would merge it. He also had to merge things when later checking had conflicting changes.
Now, the best part of this shit show was they had ~30 different customers and each of these customers had a clone of the main thing that would be customized. So the “TFS Guy” had to determine if to keep in the customer clone only or to propagate to the main and then to all the other clones!
Needless to say the “TFS Guy” made a lot of money.
