Hey guys,

If 2 users are working on the same file, and the first user commits it in the repository. What will happen if the second user also commits to the repository? Will it create a duplicate or something else?

Thanks,

SVN will not allow second user to commit his/her file. It will display message saying file is updated by another user.
So second user should take update, resolve conflicts(if any) and then only this file can be committed to svn.

What to dyou mean when you say "So second user should take update"?

Since first user has already committed his file, so second user's file becomes outdated (as compared to current version in repository). In order to commit your file, update it from svn with latest version.
