Git Blame sucks and is far far far far far far worse than Perforce Timelapse View.
You moved the goal posts a little bit. You are correct that if you want to work in a cave with no internet then you do need every bit of data to perform at least some operation. That’s not what the D in DVCS means though.
That's exactly what the D means: All the repo data is on every machine, the repo is complete in itself and no repo is any different than the other.
For me connecting to the Internet is very much a choice. Doesn't mean I wouldn't have access if I didn't want to, but why would I need it most of the time?
