I’m not quite sure how it will work yet, but it would have the entire codebase and its history mirrored onto every developer's computer. Instead of requiring a central repository, developers could share their changes directly with each other.

Is this sarcasm about git/svn or are you serious?

It was mostly a joke/irony.

Git is already a “distributed version control system” that does exactly what I’ve described. On the other hand, relying on centralized systems such as GitHub means that the “distributed” nature of it doesn’t make it any more resilient to failure.
