Local vcs let’s you decouple saving progress (commit) from publishing your change (push).

This is a huge improvement over exclusive locks (old visual source safe) and shared server (like perforce).

There are many other improvements, but that is the one that had the most impact on my daily workflow.

I’m having trouble figuring out the math for this. My assumptions lead me to divide $30b by 8b people, which is about $4/person. I’m not confident that people can eat on $4 for a year.

What am I getting wrong?
