A question on users needing to access other users files.

[Thaidog]

I have a main developer named Jesus (He's from Spain) and a lot of his work is needed for the other developers to use. There are complications though because some developers need certain directories while others need others... and sometimes they need both directories or a bunch of random stuff. Since this is a development server and nobody really has sudo access I'm not really too worried that somebody's got to go steal code... more worried that they'll screw the system up than anything.

So basically what I've been doing when a developer need to get to Jesus' stuff I add them to Jesus' group via:

usermod -a -G jesus nicole

So it just adds "nicole" to jesus group and then she's got access.

Is there a better way to do this?

access control lists... more groups and shared directories... using version control...
