1.10 + kind of version control system which allows not only workflow with one central server
1.11 + but also decentralized workflows where changesets are pushed or pulled between particular nodes;
1.12 + each node has typically full repository clone with all the history (commits, branches, tags);
1.13 + this facilitates offline work –
1.14 + developer can do commits or work with branches and tags even if he is offline –
1.15 + and after going online,
1.16 + he pushed his work to other developers
1.17 + or to the central repository
1.18 + or his work is pulled by others;
1.19 + other advantage is easy backup – just clone the repository and then do push/pull from the working one;
1.20 + Examples of DVCS: Mercurial (Hg), Git, Bazaar (bzr), Monotone (mtn), Fossil, GNU arch, Darcs, DCVS or SVK
