Git is distributed, and therefore what you want is fundamentally impossible. You can write hooks, however, enforcing "locks", and make your users install them. But due to the fundamental impossibility of the thing, you have to risk that this scenario fails. It might be better to come up with a non-tool solution to the problem, i.e. appointing people responsible for a certain set of your binary files. That is outside the purview of Git, though.
