To access our SVN repository I’m using git svn and other team members are using svn.

When they set the needs-lock property it appears that git svn ignores this and allows me to update the files anyway.

Is that accurate?

Also, is it possible to manage the needs-lock property using git svn?

    From git-svn documentation under bugs:

    We ignore all SVN properties except svn:executable. Any unhandled
    properties are logged to $GIT_DIR/svn//unhandled.log

    And since svn:needs-lock is a communication to the client saying that the file had to be made read only, you cannot achieve this with git-svn.
