i'm sure there's lots of people who use a decentralized workflow, but... in the big picture, it seems it has to be a vanishingly small minority. unless i have a wrong idea about what decentralized means in this case?

the way i see it, pretty much every project has an "upstream" which is in effect a central location where the development of a codebase happens. and with how easy it is to set up a git server, with all the advantages that having a server for it brings, i just don't see why some people make such a big deal out of it.

don't get me wrong, things like being able to pull a repo to have it locally, and work on it independently from a server, without internet connection, is a vital point for any version control, and i see a lot of value in git-send-email (sr.ht's way of doing things), but in the end there usually does end up being a central location for the code, so why not embrace it?
