Bitbucket LFS file lock implementation - Game Development

Question

We are currently evaluating Bitbucket for game development.  We see that GIT with LFS has the file locking feature implemented but Bitbucket does not.  File locking is a crucial feature when working with binary files that cannot be merged - (standard in video games).

Without this feature, it is not practical for large teams to develop a game where multiple people work on binary files.  I saw the request feature thread and added a vote and see it is almost at 100 requests for this feature.

Is there any update on the status of this?

Thank you!
