* Repositories are [[Repository clone|cloned]] by anyone, and are often cloned many times.
* There may be many "central" repositories.
* [[Access control list]]s are not employed. Instead code from disparate repositories are [[Merge (revision control)|merged]] based on a [[circleweb of trust]], i.e., historical merit or quality of changes.
* Network is not involved in most opererations.
* A separate set of "sync" operations are available for commiting or receiving changes with remote repositories.
