>I think a reason that this comes up is that often people are replacing
centralised systems. Mercurial can do this, but the examples are written
with developers 'pulling' from each other, rather than all 'pushing'
back to a central (unmanned) repository. It's subtly different and I've
yet to see an example for it that shows the normal workflow.  

Exactly. I've read what I could but couldn't get my head around a
workflow that is distributed. I mean, how does it work? The only way for
me to pull in changes is to know everyone?

Some questions I have about the distributed model:

1- How does one get a copy including *all* the changes?
2- Or the newest version? The only way I could see this being possible
is by having a central repo where changes are checked into once in a
while.
3- How do I pull in changes when I don't know everyone who is working on
the project?
4- When I'm done, where do I push to?

I'm sure that the distributed model works well, it's just that I don't
understand it and from the small amount of documentation I've read I
haven't found a good description of how to use it. Does anyone have any
pointers?
