==Work Model==
The distributed model also impacts the traditional developer working model.

See the [[List of revision control software]] for a more comprehensive list.
Some of natively centralized systems are starting to grow distributed features. For example, Subversion is able to do many operations with no network, and it is planning to implement [[local commit]]s.▼

==Flourishing DVCSs==
Most, if not all, DVCSs are [[open source]] projects. This list includes the most popular DVCSs, or those with the most rapidly growing user base, or receiving the most public attention. There are a handfull of others that are not listed here.

==Future==
▲Some of natively centralized systems are starting to grow distributed features. For example, Subversion is able to do many operations with no network, and it is planning to implement [[local commit]]s. It may become more difficult to separate natively Distributed vs Centralized systems.
Due to the explosion of new DVCSs in the last couple years, it is likely that some of them will slow down or die off.
There are many tools that rely on version control, such as wikis, [[file systems]], and [[text editor]]s. Some are starting to adopt DVCS features, and even integrate with them. E.g., the [http://ygingras.net/gazest Gazest wiki].
