Darcs is a distributed SCM system. In other words, it's branches with
steroids! Literally, every copy of a repository is a branch. There is no
central server. If you and I are working on a project, and I have one
copy of the files and you have another, then we have two branches.
The Darcs model is, IMHO, a better reflection of the reality that the
moment two people make different changes to the files on their
computers, there is a divergence that must be dealt with. They are branches.
Cheers,
Daniel.
