It knows where the current file is from; but not where you want it.
I have on my TODO some kind of multi-commit - where each changed entry gets
committed to the URL it belongs to.
But this is not yet done.

I thought that I *require* that a repository is given, because changes could
easily be overlooked and committed against the wrong repository.
(As currently only a single repository is possible.)
You can use the "commit_to" option in the config, if you (normally) commit
against a specific repository.

That error I could work around - but I'm not sure whether that's correct, as
it would silently put the file where it wasn't before - and the user possibly
doesn't want it.
But maybe you're right, and I should just give more rope, so that users can
shoot themselves in the foot ...
I'm aware that this is not really an answer to your questions; but patches are
welcome ;-)
