i don't think he called torvalds the father of dvcs, merely he was the one who came up with the simplest and correct solution to handling merges (which is to let the user resolve most of the complex ones) and what about this line on the wikipedia page? > This [community] version of BitKeeper also required that certain meta-information about changes be stored on computer servers operated by BitMover, an addition that made it impossible for community version users to run projects of which BitMover was unaware. so not storing some changes locally, and being unable to access it if you don't have a paying version of the client seems to be really archaic compared to the simplicity of git. i could be misinterpreting what they mean by meta-information though.
