    # == What is Optimistic Locking
    #
    # Optimistic locking allows multiple users to access the same record for edits, and assumes a minimum of
    # conflicts with the data.  It does this by checking whether another process has made changes to a record since
    # it was opened, an ActiveRecord::StaleObjectError is thrown if that has occurred and the update is ignored.
    #
    # Check out ActiveRecord::Locking::Pessimistic for an alternative.
    #
    # == Usage
    #
    # Active Records support optimistic locking if the field <tt>lock_version</tt> is present.  Each update to the
    # record increments the lock_version column and the locking facilities ensure that records instantiated twice
    # will let the last one saved raise a StaleObjectError if the first was also updated. Example:
    #
    #   p1 = Person.find(1)
    #   p2 = Person.find(1)
    #
    #   p1.first_name = "Michael"
    #   p1.save
    #
    #   p2.first_name = "should fail"
    #   p2.save # Raises a ActiveRecord::StaleObjectError
    #
    # Optimistic locking will also check for stale data when objects are destroyed.  Example:
    #
    #   p1 = Person.find(1)
    #   p2 = Person.find(1)
    #
    #   p1.first_name = "Michael"
    #   p1.save
    #
    #   p2.destroy # Raises a ActiveRecord::StaleObjectError
    #
    # You're then responsible for dealing with the conflict by rescuing the exception and either rolling back, merging,
    # or otherwise apply the business logic needed to resolve the conflict.
    #
    # You must ensure that your database schema defaults the lock_version column to 0.
    #
    # This behavior can be turned off by setting <tt>ActiveRecord::Base.lock_optimistically = false</tt>.
    # To override the name of the lock_version column, invoke the <tt>set_locking_column</tt> method.
    # This method uses the same syntax as <tt>set_table_name</tt>
