Or delete some files. Or some other action which compromises the shared sandbox. That way leads to madness!! One solution to the above problem is for people to have their own sandbox on their PC, and they have a "push" command which uploads their changes into a directory on the server. From the point of view of the server software, everything is the same as before. Users can have distinct directories on the server.
