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.
