Final answer:
Yes, remote origin does support LFS locking when using Git LFS, providing a locking mechanism to prevent simultaneous edits on large or binary files thus avoiding merge conflicts.
Step-by-step explanation:
Remote origin does support LFS locking when using Git LFS (Large File Storage). Git LFS allows users to lock files, preventing others from editing the same file simultaneously and thus avoiding merge conflicts. This locking mechanism helps teams collaborate on binary files or other assets that are difficult to merge. By using Git LFS's lock command, a user can lock a file on the remote server, communicating to other collaborators that the file is being worked on and should not be edited by others. This file locking is particularly beneficial when dealing with large files that are not well-suited to diff-based merges.
