Dear diary, on Tue, Oct 24, 2006 at 08:25:53PM CEST, I got a letter
where Jakub Narebski [off-list ref] said that...

1. Centralized: all commits must go to one repository, connectivity
required to check-in 
Bazaar-NG "light checkouts" implements this. Git doesn't support this
topology, and probably wouldn't.

1.5. Disconnected centralized. Like centralized, but you can work (perhaps
limited to what you can do) even without connection to central server.
Minimally you have to be able to commit changes locally, if central server
is not available. Bzr "normal/heavyweight checkouts" are [roughly] abot
this. Git "lazy clone" proposal is about similar thing; you can get git to
support this model (although without space savings) with full 
clone + hooks.
Cogito can do it now out of the box, having support for cg-commit --push
and cg-update preserving uncommitted local changes.

Not that you probably should use it. ;-)
