Reveal correct answer
Correct answer: C
Explanation
Unlike centralized version control systems such as SVN and CVS, Git is distributed, which allows every developer to have a full history of their code repository locally.
What is the difference between decentralized and distributed systems?

A decentralized system is a subset of a distributed system.
The primary difference is how/where the “decision” is made and how the information is shared throughout the control nodes in the system.
Decentralized means that there is no single point where the decision is made. Every node makes a decision for it’s own behaviour and the resulting system behaviour is the aggregate response.
Distributed means that the processing is shared across multiple nodes, but the decisions may still be centralized and use complete system knowledge.
