For an archive foo with branch bar, the syntax is foo/bar. I have
changed the error message (arx.2.2,62) to say
No default archive set and no archive specified
arx
To set a default archive, use "arx param default-archive <archive name>".
To specify the archive in the name, for an archive "foo" and
a branch "bar", the syntax is "foo/bar".
and now "arx init --help" has an example (arx.2.2,63)
----------------------------------------------
address@hidden:~$ arx init -H
Initialize the current tree
usage: init [options] branch
--dir DIR cd to DIR first
--no-add Don't add files
Initialize the current directory so that it can be commit'ed
as a completely new line of development. For example,
arx init foo/bar
will initialize the current directory as the project "bar" stored
in the archive "foo". If you have set your default archive to "foo"
(see arx param -H), then it is just
arx init bar
ArX will automatically (unless given the --no-add option) recursively
add all of the files and directories so that they will be included in
the archive.
----------------------------------------------

Reading through the manual, I noticed there is no one place that
describes the syntax (foo/bar.baz,14). There should be. I have
created a bug entry.
Thanks,
