subversion commits are ACID transactions so simultaneous commits will not cause 
any problems.

If the file your are commiting isn't up to do svn will return an error.

So, if you an I both submit a change to ^/foo.txt one of us will win the other 
will get an error that foo.txt is out of date and you need to update and commit 
again. When you update you will get either a clean merge or a conflict. If a 
conflict you resolve it and then you can commit again.

So, you really don't need to be able to lock folders to avoid simultaneous 
commits.
