Git not being centralized helps a lot in the initial-development scenario. Two developers can pull changes from each other without polluting a centralized repository.

It looks like git / bzr / hg have better mechanisms than svn in the case you mention.

Those same mechanisms break just as badly as svn when you need to coordinate 10+ developers. The communication overhead of the developers dwarfs the way they sync files.
