Concurrent updates to the same object.

You could get around some of the limitations by creating a branch for every session (though probably not on a high volume site), but then you will have lots of interesting problems once a session ends and you have to merge all changes back into master.

Ahh, yes this would be a problem on GitModel. I was thinking of Git at a lower level, since you can't update objects without also changing the SHA.
