Jo,

Not to speak for David but in general - the point is that they are different 
components of an interlocking whole.

In the cases you are discussing (conflict between multiple groups working on 
related systems) you need to implement better change control or CI.  While 
Puppet works quite well with those technologies, we don't yet provide tooling 
around git/svn/choose your tool VCS, nor do we provide the workflow itself.

In terms of conflicting changes, you really need code review, CI, or preferably 
both.  That's how large organizations handle scale.  Trying to force the tool 
to solve development problems isn't going to work.

Look at how development teams solve the same problems.  They don't do it by 
refusing to build a new daily snapshot of parts of the software.
