They would not; they would be entirely independent instances of the
application, each with their own domain and whatnot.

If you all want to be working against the same instance of the
application, meaning the same subdomain, then nothing else need happen.
 There's no restriction on the number of concurrent login sessions for
the account.

The only drawback to having a single account is all the work would look
like it came from the same person in the Git commit history, unless when
making commits people specify --author.  Which is probably a good
practice in this case.

If we create new camps under the fidelity_camp user account, such that
each team member has one camp, that may still be best; we can configure
Git for each of those camps so the commit author appears to be the
person who works on that camp, so we know who is responsible for what
change in the version history.  Furthermore, this lets each of you work
on pieces in isolation, without fear of overwriting each other's work.
Then, you commit your stuff in a camp, push the commits upstream, and
the other team members can pull your changes in.  This is the standard
workflow for version controlled development.

Thanks.
