I agree -- everything different about a DVCS is a consequence of allowing local commits. The best way I've seen of phrasing that fundamental difference:

"[A DVCS] separates the act of committing new code from the act of inflicting it on everybody else." ~http://hginit.com/00.html

But of course when you eventually merge all your local commits which Git encourages you to keep to yourself until you are good and ready to combine them with other people's repositories and local commits,

I think that's called chewing the cud. I'm not a Git user, but it reminds me of the saying, "Don't call us, we'll call you." I find this thread interesting so thanks to all involved. And thanks for not top-posting. -- Brian Wood Ebenezer Enterprises http://webEbenezer.net (651) 251-9384
