Is it possible to make a shelf with a file when another developer has the lock? I am working on a change where I know I’ll have to redo a little work in one file that’s locked, but I’d like to be able to temporarily hang on to my changes while I wait, and still do things like merge with a clean workspace, if I have to. It looks like I have to do this kind of thing by manually saving and restoring copies of files, which is frustrating to have to work with when I have version control.

I’m afraid you won’t be able to shelve an item that is locked by your coworker.
At the end of the day, the shelve is a temporary changeset and the operation required to checkout the item.
I will share your feedback with the product team. We are working on new features like the distributed looks and it may be useful for you.
