Abstract
Aspects of the present disclosure involve systems and methods for avoiding conflicts between versions of an editable binary file from a shared repository of system management files, workflows, and/or items. In particular, a computing environment may include a development tool for altering the item and a standby development tool that maintains the latest version of the item. The computing environment is configured to execute a pre-commit script or program that checks a version number of the edited item to a version number of the item maintained by the standby development tool such that changes made to the item are only committed when the item has not been edited or changed by another user to the shared repository. In this manner, conflicts between versions of the binary file may be avoided such that each user's alterations to the file or item from the infrastructure management tool are properly committed.
