In general, "commit" uses whatever "init" used. However, you can
override that with the --branch option and use a full URI.

You should never have to set a default. Setting a default just makes
life easier.

What does "arx tree-branch" give?
As an aside, are you sure you want to have separately named archives
-remote and -personal? The section on mirroring
http://arx.adamantix.org/ArX-2.2.4/docs/ArX.html#htoc22
talks about syncing different machines.

Correct. ArX will use the output of "arx param id" for each user.

I do not know of any other docs. On my system, the full set of
gnomevfs convenience functions is
gnomevfs-cat gnomevfs-info gnomevfs-monitor
gnomevfs-copy gnomevfs-ls gnomevfs-mv
gnomevfs-df gnomevfs-mkdir gnomevfs-rm
