Have each of them work in his private repo, and push/pull through ssh
to/from the shared repository.  Use a baseball bat on anyone who works
directly in the shared repository.

(If you're used to CVS, think of the shared user as being the uid of
the pcvs process.)

All the files in the shared repo will appear as owner=shared, but
that's okay: what counts are the people who did the commit, and
they're clearly marked in the log.
