are there any plans to support locking for the s3 backend? There's been no response on this PR for a few months: https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/pull/2697

Yes - definitely. Its very possible we'll need a more robust solution than in the current PR (as discussed in the latter half of the PR thread) - I think someone from the team is planning to jump in here and propose next steps in the next week.

That’s great news. 👍

@white-balloon-205 Hi there. Is there anything news about the locking support?

@silly-dusk-21491 what do you think about a tool to wrap the pulumi binary around something that provides the lock? internally we have been experimenting with something like this but it currently requires manually selecting the lock name. it wouldn’t be a stretch to generate a unique lock name based on the stack and backend url.
