In this case, the C code is going to be only one line update of the
include path, which can be done with a sed command, probably not
suitable to spend time to sync across couple of developers. If it would
be updates of function prototypes or structure fields, that would
require more manual editing and having several developers working would
really make sense.

Not sure what implies for packaging spec files though, but I guess you
are the one to sort out for debs and Sergey for rpms.

Cheers,
Daniel
