"Transforms to apply to buffer file name before making a lock file name.
This has the same syntax as
`auto-save-file-name-transforms' (which see), but instead of
applying to auto-save file names, it's applied to lock file names.
This has the same syntax as `auto-save-file-name-transforms',
but applies to lock file names instead of auto-save file names.
By default, a lock file is put into the same directory as the
file it's locking, and it has the same name, but with \".#\" prepended."
By default, Emacs puts each lock file into the same directory as the
file it locks, prepending \".#\" to the base file name.
Note that changing this could break lock file functionality, e.g.:
if different users access the same file, using different lock file settings;
if accessing files on a shared file system from different hosts,
using a transform that puts the lock files on a local file system."
