Hi list,
I am planning to collaborate on a project with another org-mode
user (such a joy). For each org file we want to keep an archive as
well in the git repository. With this work flow it does not make
sense to keep track of the file property in
`org-archive-save-context-info', since it will be different
depending on the location of the repository in each computer. And
since I did not want force a global configuration for this
variable, I tried to add the variable as local in the first line
of the file:
# -*- mode: org; org-archive-save-context-info: (time olpath
todo); -*-
This sets the variable as local fine, but when I call
`org-archive-subtree', it seems like this command still uses the
global value of `org-archive-save-context-info' and keeps
information on the file location in the archive.
Does someone know why setting this variable as local does not work
with `org-archive-subtree'? Is there another approach for setting
org-mode variables on a per file basis?
Best,
--
Jorge.

The buffer-local value doesn't continue to shadow the global value when
org-archive-subtree sets the buffer to the archive file.

Thanks, Kyle! That is the reason. Setting the local variable in
the archive file as well does the trick.
