But perhaps I'm missing something. A bigger advantage isn't necessarily the 'distributedness', but that you can do offline commits, or review commit logs, annotate etc all without a network connection. It's incredibly useful whilst travelling to be able to keep hacking on stuff, making a load of commits, reverting stuff, looking up changes etc, and then sync up when you get network again.
