Distributed version control systems, explained Distributed version control systems let you check in, branch, and merge without connecting to the main server. Each contributor works from a cloned repository stored in the cloud. Their main advantage is that teammates can work separately, at speed, without worrying about slow networks or VPNs. It’s even possible to work on a project offline, but an internet connection is still required to push or pull updates https://unity.com/solutions/what-is-version-control

i think we get the technical aspects of the solution, it's another question about semantics. does "but an internet connection is still required to push or pull updates" rule out c or not?

Option C, "allows users to work on the codebase even when not connected to the Internet," is not a benefit specific to distributed version control systems (DVCS). While it is true that DVCS allow developers to work on the codebase even when not connected to the Internet, this is not a unique benefit of DVCS. Other version control systems, such as centralized version control systems, also allow users to work on the codebase while offline. In contrast, option A, "encourages users to commit small places of work to the system more frequently," is a benefit specific to DVCS. Because each developer has a local copy of the codebase on their own machine, they can commit their work more frequently without the need to connect to a central server. This can lead to smaller, more atomic commits that are easier to review and manage.
