Here's one possible difference: I have a setup where the repository is
owned by one user, and I push over SSH to the repository: 'hg push
ssh://foo@server...'

I actually share the filesystem with the server, so I could give myself
write-access and push directly 'hg push /home/foo/...'. But if I did
that, the configuration in foo's repository would be ignored by default.
