Active voice makes everything better:

	When you create a repository with hg clone, the clone command saves
	the location of the source repository as the "default" path.

I would then make the latter item consistent with the revised former:

	* The push command will look for a path named "default-push", and  
prefer it over "default" if both are defined.
