Vim is not designed for simultaneous editing of the same file. If two
instances of vim are editing the same file, expect there to be some
corruption of the file. This warning alerts you to the fact that this
could happen.
The safest action would be to talk with your friend and coordinate
access to the file.
If you don't need to make changes to the file, you could open it in
read-only mode ('vim -R' or 'view'). This is handy when you want to yank
contents from a file but not modify it.
If you both need to make changes to the same file, the safest thing is
to use two different working directories and a version control system.
You check out the file(s) in your working directory and make the changes
you need. Then you update your working directory from the version
control system, merging any changes to files that were changed by your
and someone else. Check that everything is OK, and then checkin your
changes with the merges.
