ClearCase hijack functionality in subversion

Question

Is there a way to \"hijack\" a file in subversion like there is in ClearCase. Googling so far has not given me a definitive answer. For non ClearCase users Hijacking a file

Answer 1

ClearCase has an odd mix of optimistic lock and pessimistic lock.
But hijacking a file (for snapshot view) or eclipsing a file (for dynamic view) concerns only private changes (i.e. changes done without telling ClearCase first).

As David mentions, SVN doesn't follow that model: you modify first, and then tell SVN during the commit step, which will include all files modified.
ClearCase has not a "workspace wide revision", only a file-by-file commit.
