Not really. Locking of binary assets is a separate topic I’ve ignored.
I don’t actually like or dislike the “distributed” part. I don’t care about it. At all. In the slightest. Almost all projects are defacto centralized. If decentralization was free then great, more features for free.
My experience is that distributed is not free. It appears to me to be a fatal flaw that prevents Git from ever being a good tool for large projects with large binary assets, such as games. So I would sacrifice it in a heartbeat IF it gave me the features I do care about.
