Function TryLock

internal/flock/flock_unix.go:16–32

TryLock attempts to acquire an exclusive, non-blocking flock on the given path. Returns the locked file and an unlock function on success. The caller should read/write through the returned file to avoid platform differences with mandatory locking on Windows. Returns ErrLocked if the file is already

(path string)

// mandatory locking on Windows.
// Returns ErrLocked if the file is already locked by another process.
