Yeah, but that's true of any version control system that does not have a centralized locking system to prevent two developers from changing a single file simultaneously. Or at least, *somebody* must be available to do necessary merging. With Git, it's possible to have a developer create a new commit and send it to the master repo but *not* have it become the "newest" commit of the main line of development. Then another developer can download that commit and merge it into the main line. With Git there are always multiple ways of doing something.
