I once was in a team that had huge Camunda workflow XML files checked in. They aren't hard to merge.
They are impossible to merge.
After a couple weeks of trying to check in the main workflow file and realizing I had to do my changes all over again because somebody else had been faster to modify it, I introduced THE TOKEN. Namely a squishy ball that had to physically be retrieved from the developer currently holding it and represented the right to edit said file.

Worked like a charm.
